I posted this picture a few months ago taken at my visit to the 2008 Houston Stock Show and Rodeo. I really liked the image. So much so that I had it made into a 20x30" print and have it framed for my livingroom wall that I am currently working on. A funny thing happened, as it usually does when one surfs aimlessly around the world wide web, and I stumbled upon a very interesting article and story about sideshows. Lo and behold, there was my little guy. He apparently has gone by a number of different names in his long career but it is definitely him. I thought some may find it interesting. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you POOBAH!
Here's a link to the video clip and article.
