Napoleon Dynamite discovered - DrMitchJ - 05-12-2014

I was watching Yankees Classics (re-broadcasts of famous Yankee Games ... this one was the WS game where Reggie hit 3 HR)
and during the clubhouse celebration, I found this guy lurking in the background!!!
Napoleon Dynamite, if you ask me Smile

These are screen shots of my TV with my iphone, so the quality isn't the best, but I thought it was pretty funny!
What do you think?

It's probably the combo of the sleep deprivation and the Studying. Smile
I gets a little punchy, in the wee hours! Smile ... but honestly, that guy has to be the inspiration for Napoleon Dynamite, right? He's like a dead ringer!

Ya'know, I think you're correct! Looking at him now, I can see that he would look like that 35 years ago!

Man, did I miss the boat or what? I don't know who this guy is and I don't know who Napoleon Dynamite is. Were they on SNL? Because IF they were, that would explain why I don't know them. I've never watched SNL. Well, tbh, I haven't watched very many episodes of SNL. And now, I sure wouldn't watch it. I have a vendetta against channel 5 (nbc). My vendetta is sooo strong against channel 5, I don't even watch the Olympics.

Nope, not SNL. A comedy movie ...

Could that have been Dan in the Yankees Clubhouse? Was he a reporter in the late 70s?

Yes...Baltimore Sun beat reporter late '70's. Was about 25 then so I gonna say yes it's him.

See that...it's true, eveyone has a twin. (mine is a young Tom Jones....when I was young....LOL)
