To his friends he’s called the “Secretariat of stoopers.” The Times has a great story about a real New York character in today’s paper. His name Jesus Leonardo and he’s known as a stooper. That means a person who picks up the winning tickets discarded by others at horse betting venues. Leonardo estimates he brings in about $45,000 a year.
