It's Molly Malone and her statue is in Dublin. Rubbing her boobs supposedly brings good luck.

I'm not sure where the good luck part came from... But leave it to men to classify copping a feel as a sign of good luck.

Oh. It's tourists. The debates about it aren't new, either. :/

Although based on this thread I think Wikipedia needs a list of statues routinely groped by people.

Lmao - guess my joke about the copping a feel didn't land. Guess I should've added in a /joke there.
