The famous 4-year-old English skateboarding bulldog from Southern California has arrived in NYC for the first time ever. According to the Daily News, Tillman—the world’s fastest skateboarding canine—is here for Saturday's “Bark in the Park” event, where Mets fans and their furry friends are both invited to a game.
His owner Ron Davis says that so far “he loves New York. There is a lot of concrete for him to do his thing.” He's already hit up Tompkins Square Park, and Davis told the paper, “He just pulled a no-comply, top-shove-it move that we got on tape. What can I say? He’s an adrenaline junkie.”
