I had tourist friends come to visit last weekend. Totally unititiated, country folks. (They live in Amish country!)
So, Saturday we went into Manhattan to do some sight seeing. We were standing on the Grove St. platform when the PIMP appeared in head to toe red. Cane, hat, everything. I thought my friend was going to die. She came over and whispered to me, "IS THAT A REAL PIMP?!?" She wanted to take a picture but was too afraid. I really think it was one of the highlights of her trip!

Is there a pimp training academy? How do I break into this exciting business?

I saw this guy last Summer when I first moved here and thought he was some kind of mascot or just another crazy person LOL! The first time I saw him he was wearing a yellow outfit with a yellow hat and I mistook him for a guy in a chicken suit at first until I took another look!

I am trying to figure out if there is a hidden meaning as to why the guy behind him is pointing in the opposite direction.

Oh yeah he's...The SuperPimp!
He walks by here everyday...he's the magical pimp that lives down the street, but I think I know his secret identity, but I'll never tell.
I want to make a calendar full of his magical Pimp Suits

i've seen him often hanging around on church street near chambers, and around the grove street path. it's a toss up for me, whether the purple fur or leopard suit is my fave.

I had a pimp sighting yesterday around 6:00 near Van Vorst Park. I guess it was an aqua colored suit...I was driving so I couldn't document it.

I see the pimp all the time around Varick and Bright. AND I've said
"hi" to him a few times and he returns it with an extended "hellooooo" and then gives me a look like he's interested in more than just neighborly hellos. I swear. He is a player! And, if you look closely, you can tell that he's old enough to be a grandpa but he thinks he's the bomb diggity. BTW, I don't think he's a REAL pimp. Just a super fly daddy.

He's still here. I saw him 2 weeks ago in a health food store in the Village! I saw him again about 15 minutes later on the 9th st PATH platform going back to Jersey City. He was wearing a cream colored pinstripe suit.

Saw him passing City Deli on Newark Between Jersey & Barrow around 11:30am on Wed 4/11 all dressed in power blue. My first sighting of him, my wife is mad she missed him.

Today, 11:20 am at the corner of Jersey and Columbus walking south.
Much like the photo a couple post above ? a vision in yellow? bright yellow suit, bright yellow hat with yellow feather boa trim, yellow shoes, matching yellow frames for the sunglasses. Huggy Bear meets Big Bird? very cool (or should I say ?tight?)!

Around 7:00 PM, WTC PATH station going thru toll, he was getting on a Newark bound train, wearing pink shirt, pink suit, and pink hat, with a white tie and what appeared to be a pink shag long coat . . . it was truly a sight of beauty.

The JC Pimp has his own parking zone sign downtown.

Wow! I just thought my Pimp sighting was an amazing fluke. I had no idea this was an actual JC phenomenon.
My wife and I recently moved to Jersey City. While we were searching for an apartment two months ago we saw the Pimp getting off of the trian @ WTC. As the train pulled in my wife said, "did you see the pimp?" Assuming she was referring to someone's garish choice of clothing, I just laughed and said, no. Then as the doors opened out stepped a seriously fly mofo decked out from hat to shoes in powder blue. It was as if an Issac Hayes song kind of floated about him as he passed by. Sweeeeeet!

Well, you know Spring has sprung when the local pimp is out in a white suit, white fedora, white shoes and white cane.
That was the scene yesterday. As I was walking near him, a car drove by and said to him: "Hey, brother man, what's happening?" Pimp responds: "Alright, homie. Alright." That pimp is a cool cat. Wish someone had a picture.

Funny this thread came up as I JUST saw him this past Wednesday (MArch 28th) on the PATH from WTC to Grove. I believe it was at about 7pm but I don't remember exactly.
His Fuzziness was all in green (for Spring, I guess).

Saw him today at Jersey and Montgomery wearing a very subtle furry gray palette to match the morning weather.
I?m tempted stop him one day and ask for details, but afraid it would take away the mystery from one of our urban legends.

I saw him at grove path the other day, waiting for an uptown train. I see him often enough that I don't remember what he was wearing that day, but I noticed a guy playing with his cell phone and it seemed to me he was sneakily trying to take a pic. I think the pimp noticed that too cause he moved over to the downtown side on the other side of the stairs, but looking at the uptown side.
does he get annoyed with his photo taken?

I got quite a thrill last night while walking down Montgomery towards Grove. I was on my way to Ibby?s when the Pimp walked right past me. He was dressed in head to toe orange complete with walking stick and feather trim on his orange pimp hat. He even said ?Hey? to me.
