No - I live in Oregon, the "no sales tax" state. This guy better not show up now at a gym in rural Oregon because someone will just shoot him.

He was at a State Tournament a few years back in Tacoma...got taken out in cuffs because the security guys recognized him and had the police arrest him for trespassing. It's a really weird situation...he hasn't hurt anyone - yet. But tournament directors around the state (district and regional sites) all know to be on the watch for him and not let him enter the building.

Sounds like he's making his way east. Watch out Rich!

Kinda surprised he hasn't turned up in Florida like every other nutjob/criminal in the US. Winter is prime time here for these kind of screwballs.

I officiated the game in this article. Very weird............

Guys - I wouldn't be asking players to give me piggyback rides. I'd be after the hot moms. Actually, that's not such a bad idea. I can think of one I'll ask. She's a mom who keeps the scoreclock at her daughter's 7th grade games. The coach is her ex-husband. The guy must be nuts to have let her go because she is incredibly hot. When I work her games, I find excuses to come over to the table. OK - I'll stop now. :D

He went into the home teams locker room at half time and told the players and coach that "the technical foul they called on #__ was bullsh!t"....

Too easy, couldn't resist.

At my age, the only thing Viagra's good for is to keep me from rolling out of bed. :o

Just curious, and haven't seen this asked yet, but, is this person mentally challenged?

The article says he behaves like he is handicapped or has a mental dysfunction. But to travel the miles he has and to do the same things in other states, I would question that fact. Someone that is mentally challenged does not go from one part of the country to another part to just be around HS games. That takes a little work to accomplish that for sure.

Peace

Yeah, they said he's socially awkward, but very smart.
