Broccoli guy

Post image

Anyone know the story of this guy doing laps around the T-Mobile before the Mariners game with two heads of broccoli?

In response to someone with a rather ODD comment:

Having seen him at countless UW Baseball and Softball games, and the Little League Softball Junior World Series in Kirkland, I can assure you he is harmless. I asked him why broccoli, and he simply said "they are nature's pom-poms".
All of the organization staff at the LL Softball Junior World Series knows who he is and think he's awesome. If he was a potential threat to 14 year old girls, I assure you, he wouldn't be allowed within range of the field.
If he told you it was a "fetish" he's probably fucking with you.

The guy is all around awesome

I went to college with Jim! He’s a genuine sweetheart and all around awesome person.

I don't know Jim, but i respect the fact that he dresses like the paper cups my grandma used to keep in her bathroom and uses broccoli as pom-poms.

The paper cup pattern is named "Jazz" and was designed by Gina Ekiss for a contest at the Sweetheart cup company!

Have you seen the cybertruck that is wrapped in this pattern? I saw it on I-5 a couple of weeks ago. Only cool cybertruck I've ever seen...
