Hey, Aren't You....?

Yesterday, I was recognized by a woman who used to listen to my radio show. Big deal, right? Wait a second, I was meeting my wife, Barb and my son, Tristan for dinner when this woman from Myrtle Beach comes up to me outside of the restaurant and says, "Excuse me, aren't you Banana Jack?" So what, right? Well, it startled me because I was in Pittsburgh, PA.

I don't expect to get recognized that far from home, but it happened....not once, but THREE times. (For the record, my son took part in a model and talent search held in Pittsburgh and it turns out there were other kids from the Carolinas present.)

Earlier today, another woman from Florence, SC, who was there with her grandkids grabbed my arm as I walked by and said, "Aren't you the River Talk guy? It is you. I like that show. You know, it's informative."

Later in the day, as we were packing our suitcases in the trunk of the car so we could travel to Hershey, PA, a gentleman asked me, "Hey, is all this going to be on your tv show? Am I going to be on television? Are you working up here now?"

No, I'm not working. I'm on vacation. Tomorrow the family invades Hershey Park. I wonder if I'll be hearing, "Hey, aren't you....?"
