The naked Mang that eluded Coffee Quarter's campus police for several hours is at last in custody.
Coffee PD’s phones were ringing all day yesterday afternoon when citizens began calling in to report a man in a Mang costume running through Coffee Quarter’s Five Points area, handing out Starburst candies and high fives.
Normally seeing a mascot running around wouldn’t phase a single soul, we Namkandans see at least one BT21 mascot walking the streets every single day, but no, this one stood out. Because he had not an entire costume, but just the head. And the rest of him was entirely naked.
And it wasn’t just that the Mang was naked from the head down, but the man insisted on stopping to take selfies at all of the local businesses along way, many of which were family-friendly eating establishments, so getting an eyeful of his pied piper was not on the menu.
Coffee PD took the man into custody at the local Butter & Buns, (no pun whatsoever intended, honestly we think he stopped there on purpose) where he was sitting at an outside table eating a plate of croissants. He'd taken off his Mang head and sat it on the chair next him, and didn't resist or show any signs of anger or agitation when the police escorted him away, he simply waved goodbye cheerfully to onlookers who applauded and whistled.
We jokingly asked the staff how often they served naked Mangs, and Butter & Buns told us he didn't buy the croissants there, they have no idea where he got them.
Well, we're outta here, that's too many unasked, unanswered questions about his storage spaces for us. Because Naked Mang handed out hundreds of Starbursts before his run ended, and we still have no idea where he was keeping them all.
