I just met this guy! He's now saying that he's Justin Verlander's father. I was at ACO Hardware getting keys made (my son lost his) and he was having a key made also. He said he was leaving for Sidney, Australia tonight and that his son, Justin Verlander "You know, he pitches for the Tigers, do you like the Tigers?" was paying for the whole trip. The cashiers all gave each other knowing glances, so they clearly knew him and they were teasing him about how bad the Tigers did last season. He said "Sure, everybody says that now and then they'll be asking me for tickets in a few months". Seems like a harmless old guy, driving the white Cadillac still! I couldn't wait to get home to post it. I knew that Justin was from Virginia and that his parents still live there and this couldn't possibly be his dad. I found a bulletin board that said he's been claiming to be Justin's dad since around the time of that Fox2 newscast.
I ate at the restaurant last night, PM_Mama. That's where my daughter picked to go for her birthday dinner because she wanted cannoli!
