Opportunists passing themselves off as the Tall Blonde Guy
[permalink]
No-one said the life of Cape Town's man of mystery, the TBG, was all roses and glory - it can also have it's pitfalls. Like when someone cruises around intimidating the great man. While we still yearn for more knowledge of who the TBG is and how he operates (let alone what actually makes him tick), we can only frown upon impostors who think its clever to try and confuse us.
I was sent a fake TBG sighting by the man in the right of the picture. The gentleman informed me that, although he was over the moon that he had finally met the Cape Town icon, he didn't feel entirely satisfied. It's times like these that make my job very difficult. Like doctors delivering bad news, it is me that has to inform this young man that the person he met was, in fact, an impostor. It's not easy. Particularly when the photo reveals genuine joy in his eyes.
Keep an eye out for the man on the left. Do not be fooled. He is not the TBG. Thank God we have received some genuine TBG sightings of late - to lift us up from this terrible state of affairs.
The fake TBG. Do not trust this man.
UPDATE: We are fully aware that the guy in the pic is, in fact, Peter Crouch - the England striker. Now why does that mean he is not an impostor? His real job would not affect his want to be the TBG. It doesn't change the fact that he is a pretender.
