You're not going to believe it
So today the twist man was at the track betting on ponies like he does every weekend and I walked by the bar and saw a man with an odd coat on. It had question marks all over and it hit me it was that tax guy from late night TV infomercials.
So I sat down and had a few beers, well I had a few beers he was drinking a white Russian, we talked about our picks. Dude is quite the handicapper
Isn't that the most awesome thing ever?

I didn't take any pics, but I swear on my life. Dude is a lawyer and quite intelligent. He doesn't bet harness racing much like I do, but he was explaining the mathematics of horse racing and the dude is a wiz. Had to be one of the most interesting people I've ever met. Very good gambler too

Meadowlands Race track, East Rutherford, NJ. He told me he was staying in NoJers for some meeting in NYC, but he usually lives in DC.

LOL I honestly didn't ask for his name. We made eye contact for a few seconds and he asked "you ever watch late night TV? Yep, that's me"

I guess he thought I was a mark, he told me he's a tax lawyer
It's cool though. Nothing wrong with beefing up your resume`

Sounds romantic.
Why would anyone lie about meeting this guy lol. I really doubt he's lying about meeting someone so unimportant.
If it was someone even close to cool I could understand you being suspicious.

Yeah seriously. Not to mention you run into famous people all the time if your in the right area.
I've met Jason Kidd as he was walking out of a restaurant and Sasha Baron Cohen in New York.
Didn't say much, but I had a couple words, just was like hey, congrats on everything.
Not that crazy.

It's his trademark. If you ever meet him, you'll know he's a very flamboyant person. If he wore anything else, it would be like Tom Landry not wearing his hat or Jack Nicholson not wearing sunglasses.

Guarantee he gets that **** all the time and can't stand it.
He was out with his wife and what I guess was his kid. Didn't want to be bothersome.

Except that that dude is no where near the level of recognition as Tom Landry or Jack Nicholson, so bad analogy.

IDK why he would lie, but I am going to bet on the side of twista lying about meeting someone instead of Mathew Lesko lying to some random kid about being a lawyer when he is not; plus I highly doubt Mr. Lesko actually wears his question mark suit out in public, that is ******* stupid.

Even if he's not, he still wears it around.

According to his wiki page, he wears it everywhere. And it's hard for me to be a 'kid' if I'm drinking and gambling
