No one believed this former professor would rob a bank

Former MIT Professor Joe Gibbons proudly bragged to friends and family about holding up a Chinatown bank on New Year's as part of a bizarre film project - but they ignored his felony confession as just a big joke. "I left a message with my girlfriend's sister and I told her, 'Yeah, I've got into the city, I've got myself a room at The Bowery Hotel, I filed for Social Security, I robbed the bank and I went to the drugstore,'" the 61-year-old told The Post in an exclusive interview at the Manhattan Detention Complex Sunday.
