Default Another famous owner.....

I thought I saw a Famius Owners thread but can't seem to find it now. While having tires installed I had lunch at the KFC next door. Getting ready to leave I saw this. Sorry if it has been posted before.

How funny. I just took a picture of that same poster at my KFC in Norwalk, Connecticut. It has been hanging there for years and I just got around to talking a picture of it.
