What a bunch of pricks!
An unhinged gang of vagrants—including a sicko in a grotesque penis mask and a maniac setting benches ablaze—is relentlessly terrorizing young girls at a multi-million-dollar soccer field in the trendy Meatpacking District.
The Post witnessed the chaotic scenes this week, where the man wearing a revolting mask with a dangling penis for a nose glowered less than 20 feet from the wary kids, stripped and screamed in an unprovoked outburst at 9 a.m. on a Wednesday.
“Everyone wants to party, but no one wants to pay for party!” the man bellowed.
He took off his mask to reveal something passersby said was even more frightening — his face, covered with 30 piercings, including a ring between his eyes and a menacing cluster of tiny metal studs circling his mouth, eyebrows and eyes.
Atop his head was the second part of the mask — a balaclava-type contraption featuring a giant middle finger with the words “sex,” “f–k you” and “Mr. Anger” scrawled on it.
The rowdy crew of vagrants — who get drunk at the nearby Mobil gas station on 8th Avenue before trudging over to Hudson River Park according to neighbors across the street — have become a regular presence around the Gansevoort Peninsula field, which sits across the West Side Highway from the Whitney Museum, where they harass girls as young as five and threaten parks workers.
Parents are mortified.
