Crazy Scarf Guy spotted at Cal Anderson park 38 days ago
Bat n Rouge band rehearsal
He’s the “crazy scarf guy” always seen at all Seattle festivals. He dances with his colorful scarves to music no one else hears. According to some sources, he claims to be the son of God. I can’t remember his real name, but he does have a website somewhere, and sells his scarves and artwork.
He was doing his thing while the band The Small Change was playing
Boe Odyssey is his name. He used to pick up garbage on my street on the hill (near the 15th Safeway). Helped out with an art show a few years prior, where he submitted some paintings, too. Ridiculously colorful, as expected, possibly with unicorns. He came by the opening and wandered around a bit, but was fairly uncommunicative. Though actually, I had a couple phone conversations with him too, while working on the show – nothing deep, you know, just logistics.
He used one of those metal claw things to pick up the garbage and put it in a sac. It thought it was a respectable thing to do, keeping the neighborhood clean.
I was at Bumbershoot watching the Aggrolites perform when I spotted Crazy Scarf Guy (CSG) “dancing”. He had a whole pile of scarves around him and at one point I witnessed an onlooker take some scarves and dance with him! This guy is a crazy riot.
When I approached him to take his photo he headed towards me. BEWARE! He likes to swirl his scarves around you if you get too close.
I saw him at the Pike Place Market hanging out with his scarves on the sidewalk.
I am a member of Ockham’s Razor, a local Irish Folk band, and we played the festival. It was a bright, sunny day, and there were brightly painted naked people. We were enjoying ourselves… until Scary Scarf Guy danced in front of us, his pink shorts pulled to the side so his junk could hang free, and the back of them pulled up into the crack of his ass much like a g-string. His ass has crazy psychic powers of hypnotism. The sun gleamed off his pasty white, mole-y ass. It was over a year ago and I am still scarred.
Dancing in front of the stage at Carrie Akre’s show
He was dancing during Billy Joe and his Dusty 45s at the north stage, just north of Oregon Street on California.
Dancing around in his usual scarftastic manner at the north stage. He was dancing around to Peter Parker, and The Blakes.
He handed us some scarves and we kinda went along with it :D
He was participating in the Queer Fest Parade on Capitol Hill. With scarves, sans clothing.
You can usually see him walking down 15th fully clothed.
Beware….. this guy doesn’t have anything on under that mesh skirt! He darted in front of us to grab 2 handfulls of free stuff from some girl and my friends and I saw more than we needed too. Kids, this is your brain on drugs!
He was juggling some scarves, smiling at everyone, not quite focusing on anything, but trying his best.
Apparently his name is Boe Oddissey:
