Never really spend much time in the 'Nati outside of Bengal games, so I can't speak to the situation downtown. But, the panhandlers I see near PBS have always been non-confrontational. Hell, they never have even spoken to me once. They just stand there with their signs. Of course, there's a large police force outside the stadium, so there's a huge incentive not to be confrontational.
There are also a couple of guys that play instruments there. There's usually a guy playing guitar, one on drums, and a guy that plays a great version of Bengal Growl on his sax. They usually seem to get pretty good contributions. Though, I guess you'd call those 'tips' since there's a performance element.
