Apex, North Carolina, a popular and bustling town in the triangle, was selected to participate in a traffic study which has much of the township up in arms. The 30 day study involves swapping stoplights for stop signs in a key 4-way intersection. Locals say it’s dangerous and unnecessary. Many in the area have avoided the intersection altogether, causing businesses to suffer. That all changed when several businesses chipped in and hired the help of a well known street performer, Robby Burck. Better known in New York City as the “Naked Cowboy!” Social media was quick to share this news and as of Friday, the locals have seen a two-fold increase in traffic. Apex Mayor Jacques Gilbert says that the traffic study has had a negative impact on the town and was an impediment to local businesses. He is happy to see a naked cowboy doing the “boot skoot’n boogie” across the Salem street intersection, “whatever will bring people back downtown!”. The Apex Mayor ended his remarks on the situation saying, “there’s nothing we can’t do when a singing cowboy dances naked in the middle the road. This is Apex!”
