RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) — Halloween started early in one California city, where a man dressed as Forrest Gump has been running around neighborhoods and stopping to take pictures with residents.
Video and a photo from police show the man sporting a mangy fake beard, red shorts and a red “Bubba Gump” hat during his jogs around the city of Riverside. It’s the same outfit worn by Tom Hanks in the 1994 Oscar-winning film “Forrest Gump.”
Hanks’ character spends part of the movie running across the country.
The man identified himself to KABC-TV only as Forrest Gump. He added that “it doesn't really matter” who he is. He says his runs are “just something that took off and made the community happy.”
