Local People Corner: "Popeye"

 

As an added benefit when you stop in to Evansville Oil Pros, you can personally inspect the tatoos of "Popeye", more commonly known to locals as "Rich."

There has been some movement in limited people watching circles as to whether these historic tatoos would qualify as a historic site. Locals are reviewing whether the term "site" could refer to a moving site and human receptacle....of ink.

Rich indicated to the Observer that folks certainly could stop by to see the tatoos------ that is---- if they did buy an oil change.

 

The tatoos refer to his days in the service and the units he served with----and the "Popeye" tatoo refers to his nickname-----caused by his propensity for bulging muscles.
 

Rich denied any liking of spinach.
