Chico does have its characters, but two new characters are hitting the streets to tell people to get them off the street. Meet Stanky and Stinky, two cigarette mascots that are telling the public not to throw their cigarettes in the street, which are washed into drains and into the creeks. I followed them out walking around downtown telling their message. I also shot a video of the event.
