Quote
LAS VEGAS - Someone in Las Vegas has been putting tiny cowboy hats on the heads of Las Vegas pigeons, and while you might be asking yourself why, one local onlooker only has one explanation: “the rodeo is in town.”

That’s what Robert Lee told Storyful when asked about the pigeons he recorded wearing miniature cowboy hats.



There is a video also.  I am not sure how the hats were attached.  I assuming no staples.   =D

Quote
While the identity of the person putting the hats on the pigeon remains unknown, Hillman told KVVU her organization is on a mission to track down the birds and remove their hats.
I guess it was inevitable the animal rights people wouldn't like it.

I wonder if they are (or it is) from a private coop.  Does anybody fly pigeons in Las Vegas, as they did in New York?  There was hardly an apartment building without one or two coops on the roof.

Sorta sample: Terry's pigeon coop in "On the Waterfront." (2:40)

I'd be careful of messing with pigeon's aerodynamics. They have a way of getting even. Eh ... Where do you park your car?  :-X

No, I think if a pigeon thought he was cool he would be wearing spats and a fedora.

The pigeons are just sad no one has provided little single action pistol rigs and ponchos.

I love how those people have no idea how the pigeon died, but they assume it was because of the glue.  Because it had nothing to do with them cutting up the feathers on its head to remove the hat.

Maybe it died because it ate poop. Because, as you know, bad things happen to stool pigeons.
