NYC’s Naked Cowboy Gets Competition
By Wyatt Earp | June 23, 2010
Apparently, .
New York City’s famous Naked Cowboy wants a bikini-clad woman who calls herself The Naked Cowgirl to stop ripping off his trademark. He has sent a cease-and-desist letter to Sandy Kane, who wears a red, white and blue cowboy hat and matching bikini.
Burck says if Kane’s going to make money by posing for photos, he wants her to sign a “Naked Cowboy Franchise Agreement.” Most of his licensed franchisees are required to pay $5,000 a year or $500 a month and go through a screening process.
Kane, who is in her 50s, is a former stripper who’s now a fixture of the city comedy scene.
Natch, I had to look up a photo of Ms. Kane. I am still pouring bleach into my eyeballs, so I decided that the girl above (Country star Gretchen Wilson) is the Naked Cowgirl from here on out. Trust me, don’t look up the real one.

Are we talking naked Helen Thomas, Rosie O’Donnell or Joy Behar here?

Off topic here Wyatt, but if you’re tired of reruns and oil spills, pop in season 2 of 24 and remember how KICKASS Jack Bauer was. And then,of course, there’s Nina and Kim, Tony(pre zombie) and THE President. Well played on the naked cowgirl of NYC. Gretchen Wilson is finestkind!!

We were just up in Times Square on Sunday; We didn’t see her but there was another naked cowgirl who was wearing pasties! Luckily, we were able to re-direct Shannon’s eyes without any damage; although she probably would have laughed.

Thanks for taking one for the team, so to speak.

Uhhh… My eyesight isn’t the best but I’m fairly confident in saying that she is not naked.

Randal – She probably would have yelled, “Dad, why is there such sagging on that broad?”
LFH – I do what I can.
Kaveman – I could post the pic of the real woman if you’d like. See if that makes your eyes feel any better.
