Joke?
[edit]Is the line: Burck attended Our Lady of the Rosary elementary school in Greenhills, Ohio. a joke? Can someone verify? Ask him maybe? -Haon 02:54, 16 October 2005 (UTC)
- this may be true I went to middle school and high school with him in greenhills.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.27.191.125 (talk) 03:19, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Link to our Naked Cowboy Page?
[edit]- plug deleted**—Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.104.193.135 (talk) 06:06, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
Untitled
[edit]The article states that he was born in 1977, however the interview "The Naked Truth" at www.littleviews.com states his age as 34. This is a little problematic isn't it?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.204.249.167 (talk) 05:31, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Ajflack
[edit]Ajflack (talk · contribs), as has been said on messages on your talk page, please stop removing all the wikilinks, external links, and links to articles in other languages in your edits; this is not appropriate. Please see the links on your talk page, and if you have questions, ask. -- Infrogmation (talk) 04:43, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
Beggar?
[edit]I don't think the Naked Cowboy is a beggar. The Wikipedia definition linked to in the article says that begging is "asking for money in a supplicating way." This guy doesn't supplicate. He's a busker, a street performer with an original shtick, who writes his own material, and he's worked his way up to getting on TV and becoming a Z-list celebrity. Beggars don't show this kind of determination. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.33.158.121 (talk) 14:22, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
Reverts
[edit]Hey, why were my edits reverted? I felt I really cleaned it up without getting rid of too much information. 66.71.70.66 (talk) 22:18, 30 January 2009 (UTC)
You may refuse to recognize any distinction between busking and panhandling, but the existance of seperate articles indicates that other find the distinction useful. -- Infrogmation (talk) 22:05, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
OK well I don't want to take sides in that debate...I'm no expert in that. But next time, could you only edit the offending parts, and not the whole article which I took a lot of time reorganizing and cleaning up? 66.71.70.66 (talk) 04:30, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
i really want to meet this guy, im coming to new york in a year or so. that will be my greatest achievement of all times to meet this person.--116.73.130.81 (talk) 13:04, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
Christian Minister
[edit]No where in sources 1 or 2 did it say that The Naked Cowboy is a Christian minister so I took that part out. Please find cited sources before putting that back in. Source 3 says nothing about him becoming an ordained minister either, so I took that out as well. Kgromann (talk) 15:47, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
Confusion between "Franchise", "Endorsement" & "Licensing"
[edit]My name is Todd Rubenstein. I am the Executive Director of Naked Cowboy Enterprises. Call 866-99-NAKED and follow the prompts to licensing and you'll get me. I am the person who has handled all of Robert Burck business and legal matters since 2007. I have made corrections here and they have been removed or I should say: "In-Corrected".
I am not very familiar with Wiki, so I am posting this here in hopes that someone would refer to me when reverting my changes on this site. Sometimes the references that are used are not correct.
I wrote the cease and desist sent to Sandy Kane, so I am aware of what it was and what it included. I am also aware of the fact that there were two cease & desist letters sent to Sandy Kane (whose real name is Sandy Brodsky).
Regardless, after the changes that I made to the "Naked Cowgirl" were reverted somewhat and diminished to useless information, I noticed an addition of a section entitled "Franchises". Under this section it referred to our Franchise Agreements, then proclaimed that our "Licensing/Endorsement" deal with Blue Island Shellfish Farms was a "Franchise".
This is absurd and severely incorrect. Franchise Agreements, Endorsements and Licensing deals are all VERY different authorizations and business agreements.
I believe there should be a section provided here called "Endorsements" and a section here called "Licensing". The following are contracted and active Endorsement and Licensing deals.
Current Naked Cowboy Endorsements are:
- Naked Cowboy Oysters
- Hudson Hair
- Joseph Abboud
- Anothony Ruiz Photography
- Kaufman Furs
- ConstantLink.com
- The Times Square Visitors Center
- Icon Parking
- Tour Supply
- Parrillo Performance
Current Naked Cowboy Licensing Deals are:
- Blue Island Shellfish Farms
- Volkswagen
- Vodafone
- Nautica
- Pepsi
- Chevrolet
- Activision
- Brentwood Licensing
- Event Network
- Naked Beef
- Nickalodeon
- NY Popular
- Robin Ruth —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tmrpro (talk • contribs) 18:35, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
What's up with "NYC" at the end of the page's link?

film appearances
[edit]Remind me to never hire that agent. He didn't see fit to put up the IMDB data.

Trump endorsement
[edit]How come this doesn't mention anything about his endorsement of Trump & his comments on his wife's immigration status? http://uk.businessinsider.com/naked-cowboy-donald-trump-wife-immigration-2016-12 ωεαşεζǫįδ 23:10, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

Soft Core Pornographic Career
[edit]Before finding notability as the "Cowboy", Burck did soft core porn. This included an appearance in the video "Wide Nude World of Sports" (marketed to queer men) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9159760/?ref_=nm_flmg_c_42_slf) and a full pictoral in Playgirl magazine (https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/the-birth-of-the-naked-cowboy-it-all-began-with-a-playgirl-shoot/news-story/32203960c6dc9e91559275eb06654d34). It's weird to see this totally omitted from his bio, but I'm not sure which links are acceptable enough to utilize for adding into the article. CouplandForever (talk) 03:04, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
