A Forrest Gump impersonator has been spotting running across several California neighborhoods in the last couple weeks. The unidentified man is gaining notoriety just in time for Halloween.
The impersonator didn’t miss a detail in his replica outfit, fitted with a red Bubba Gump hat, yellow shirt, red shorts, white running shoes, and a massive fake beard. The only thing missing from the triumphant costume is a loyal band of running followers.
So far the mystery man’s appearance has been documented ten times since October 19, mostly in the California neighborhood of Riverside. The Forrest Gump impersonator is stopping for pictures with community members, and was even chased for fun by the local police station.
