Over the holiday week, Jaunted tipster Paul spotted a R2 mailbox just north of Bowling Green Park in Manhattan and snapped a photo.

This R2 mail unit was spotted hanging out with Manhattan's Charging Bull sculpture. The sculpture, which was created following the 1987 stock market crash as a symbol of unyielding belief in capitalism, depicts a anatomically correct bull charging up Broadway.

It is said that many Wall Street traders fondle the bull's balls every morning before the opening bell, for good luck of course. Turns out, tourists like the bull, and his balls, just as much as R2D2 and the I-bankers. Scroll down and check out this video of tourists posing with one of New York's most photographed landmarks.
