Guy Fantastico






Guy Fantastico is the coolest guy on Earth. We first met when Ben and I were on our way home from Seattle last Saturday night. He was dressed in all black standing at the bus stop. He had leather boots, black jeans, a white T-shirt and a black jacket that said, " I am Guy Fantastico" on the back. His hair was black too...and all over the place. He carried his guitar with him and was playing a tune about the bus coming. Then when he saw the bus he started to sing about that. He continued on to sing that the bus had arrived and he would be finishing the song at a later time hahaha. Guy Fantastico definitely had some sort of drug flowing through his veins. Fortunately he got on the same bus as us. He didn't have his transfer ticket ready and he still needed roughly two bucks to pay the driver. All he had was a five dollar bill and the machine only takes exact change. He decided he would go from seat to seat asking if anyone had change for a five. Remember he was either drunk or high...maybe both, so walking up and down the aisle asking for change while the bus was moving was a very hard task to complete. He was running into everything and his guitar was twinging and twanging as he went along. Finally someone gave him two dollars just so he would sit down and shut up. He got quiet and I forgot he was there. When we were almost home I asked Ben if he saw Mr. Fantastico exit the bus. He said, "no, maybe he passed out haha." What do you know, when it was our turn to get off guess who followed? GUY!!! He walked in front of us down the road and began his hilarious song again. Unfortunately, we had to go our separate ways. I feared I would never see him again. Thankfully, I was wrong. Today I got off of work early. I went to catch the bus and none other than Guy Fantastico walked up to join me. He was dressed in the same garb only this time he wore a gold belt buckle that read, "GUY" in all caps. Awesome. He was not singing this time and he didn't get on my bus either. Sad face. I did manage to get some pics with my cell phone for every one's viewing pleasure. Sorry the quality isn't better...it was gross outside and I had to zoom in to be discrete.
