Democratic mayoral hopeful Anthony Weiner participated in New York City’s gay pride parade on Sunday, at one point sharing an amusing back-and-forth with event-goers.

From Politicker.com:

“We love Weiner and you can quote me on that!” shouted 25-year-old Justin Curtis after Mr. Weiner passed, flanked by a slew of supporters who followed in his footsteps, holding a “Weiner!” sign that stretched the length of the street itself.

“You guys know that’s my name right?” Mr. Weiner offered at one point. “We’re not just saying that.”
