Fantastic job Roger. I picture him in more of a Vince Carter Jersey or something like that, but all in all, great.

Bryan, you know that I have had the glorious opportunity to have experienced this fella. All I know is, I think he makes/made the rounds to multiple venues. My biggest concern with Crow-guy is that I was making sure not to offend him. He seems one of the few ‘freaks’ that I have run into that could kick some ass if provoked. So, that being said, I am going to keep my mouth shut.

Wow! I didn’t know you too had been exposed to The Crow Guy. I thought he came slightly after that time period, and you lucked out. But that’s funny. Between you, Rodger and myself - that’s already four different places we’re continually run into him. He’s out of control!!

I was never that worried about pissing him off, I liked to mess with him when I could, but mostly I was just trying to get him to leave as quickly as possible.

And yes, Rodger did a great job on the drawing, but I welcome everyone to join in. It’d be great to have different witness reports, since I feel like these people are sort of like Bigfoot or aliens responsible for abductions. Everyone has a slightly different take on their run-in with them. So since you’ve seen him in person. Give us your rendition of him too!

Ah, maybe you don’t remember, but I had three tours of duty at the video store—I couldn’t keep away. I guess that just shows that I truly am a geek because regardless of the fact that I already had a job and a girlfriend that took up way too much of my time, I kept coming back.

It has been a while 12-13 years (maybe 95 or 96) I’d suspect, but I distinctly remember him coming in to check on the release date of a version of the film (VHS, maybe even laser disc-yikes) Of course as a good employee I pushed for him to get a presale order on it, but he flipped out. He asked me if there was any way we could hold a copy, but didn’t want to get a presale. I don’t know if it was the problem of giving out his personal information or if it was the $5 down that made him fidgety.

Things I remember—I knew of his quirkiness before I encountered him and I honestly at first site expected a whole lot more. I even remember having the first conversation with him and thinking “Dudes not all that weird, what are these guys talking about”. Boy was I wrong. He comes in the next week and wants to have the exact same conversation as if he had never met me before.
I remember him having a deeper voice than his body shape indicated and I thought he was a little bit taller than I (I am 6’1”) but I am never good with size estimates. He always looked like he could fit in with jocks, like maybe he was the guy that wasn’t on a team in high school but he might have had the same letterman jacket like the ones they would wear, but not quite the same (this is purely speculation). He was fairly thin and slightly muscular. I also remember that he had dark glasses that he would take on or off when coming in and out of the store (seemingly for effect) which was even more lame because the store was in the mall!

Also, the “roaming around going store to store” is correct, because I remember having a friend down at the Spencer store that knew him well. For some reason I keep thinking that he had another film that he couldn’t stop talking about.

That’s all I got. Thanks for the memories.

I have seen this dude, but I want no interaction with him…I was laughing when you guys were talking about him…saw him at Wild and Wooly Video a few times….

Oh god, you’ve come in contact with him too!! See, I told you. It’s just crazy situation!!
