Josh Collmenter walks the Hollywood Walk of Fame dressed as himself
Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Josh Collmenter seems like the type of guy who doesn’t take things too seriously. He starred in one of the more bizarre dugout interviews during spring training, which should give you an idea of his personality.

Collmenter was at it again recently. During a trip to Los Angeles, Collmenter decided to walk the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He didn’t do this as a tourist, though, he opted to do it as a performer. For his costume, well, Collmenter decided to just be himself.
As Collmenter notes, it’s amazing how many people come up to him and immediately ask for a picture. Throughout the entire video, it’s impossible to tell whether anyone actually recognizes Collmenter, or whether they just want to get a picture with a man in a costume.
There’s even one guy who says he’s a Diamondbacks fan. It’s unclear if he realizes he’s speaking to Collmenter.
The best part is probably Collmenter explaining his power to Superman and Spiderman. “I don’t have any, like, supernatural-type powers. I can’t fly. I don’t have any webs. I just thrown things, and I’m very accurate.”

To recap, Collmenter spent the day surrounded by men who dress up in costumes and expect you to pay them to watch them do their thing. When put that way, it doesn’t sound so different from his normal job.
