Subject of urban legends (and Hey Arnold), the pigeon man is an outcast who prefers to be around pigeons rather than the people in the city. When Arnold went to Pigeon Man to nurse his pigeon Chester back to health, they ended up bonding. While he is with Arnold, however, Harold, Stinky, and Joey invade and destroy the Pigeon Man's home out of spite. Upon the Pigeon Man's return, he is saddened, and dejected by their cruelty. He ultimately decides to find somewhere else to live. Calling his pigeons, he had them all latch onto hooked cords on his coat and lifted him up, letting him fly. As he left he told Arnold how to take care of his pet pigeons, and hoped wherever he ends up, there would be someone else like him. January 6 was the date of the episode where "Pigeon Man" aired on Nickelodeon. Never forget the Pigeon Man, and what he taught about love, acceptance, and freedom.
