Anyone ever seen a genuine Organ Grinder with a real live monkey?

That's something I've always wanted to see in person, but never have. Anyone know where they still have these that I might go see one?

Yeah, I picture some eastern bloc place like Latvia or Bulgaria. Shame they fell out of favor in western society.

Years ago in Jackson Square, little monkey would pick your pocket.

Racist. But only because it is the OT.

Had one at Fisherman's Wharf in Monterey,Ca for ages. I'm sure that particular one is gone now.

They aren't many left in the world.

I saw that guy in Philly years ago. Pretty interesting.

The guy who owns that Cajun Pawn shop in Alexandria had one. I saw him perform with it many many years ago. Tammy was in my class growing up and they had a all sorts of animals. Those monkeys were creepy AF though.

There used to be one at the state fair of Louisiana. I doubt they still do it. I haven't lived there in about 5 years and it's been probably 10 since I went to the fair. If the monkey is still there it would probably be safer to go see one in Bangkok.

One of the better organ grinder scenes IMHO.

Inspector Clouseau rarely disappoints.

I want a monkey, and an organ. And a funny hat and or vest for my monkey. Ah hell, he can have both.
