A video was shared online showing a long queue on Broadway where the Charging Bull statue is located. And it was not just tourists, but local people as well who were there to touch the balls of the bronze sculpture! People were shown clicking pictures sitting below the statue and holding its balls above their heads. Apparently, there is an absurd belief that if you touch them you become wealthy.
The bronze sculpture that is located near the stock exchange market is a massive piece of history and art. But this sight will make any person laugh out loud. Moreover, it shows the baseless superstition that is prevalent in the Western world as well. It is not just India that is plagued with superstition but it is deep rooted in every society.
