Default Plus 15 homeless guy

Does anyone remember the plus 15 homeless guy? The one that just wanders around the plus 15 wearing his hoody, never speaking to anyone.

Apparently, I heard he passed away. Anyone know if there's any truth to this?

Maybe it was Dave C. He was crazy. Heard he was up in Ponoka, however.

Not sure if I've ever seen him talk to himself. Is this person fairly young? The guy I'm thinking about seems quite young...maybe late 20s?

Is (was) the guy you're talking about the Jesus-looking fellow?

I think you're talking about the guy with the "independent" hoody.

I haven't seen him anywhere in a awhile, but the whole "he passed away" thing sounds like a rumour, I mean what would be the source for something like that? Who would you even ask?

Is that the same guy that resembles Jesus and just does laps of the +15 and smells sooo bad?

I haven't seen that guy in awhile. But maybe because it's summer.

Does that guy have a greenish sweater? If so I see him all the time walking around the east end of downtown during the warmer months, just saw him yesterday at the corner of Macleod and 10th avenue SE.

I'm pretty sure we all have a different +15 homeless guy.

The one I always refer to is the one in the +15's near the 5th and 5th food court who is curled up in a ball sleeping half the time and smells like garbage.

Well, he did get some exposure a while ago with at least one of the agencies that help homeless people when he "won" the Vibe Facebook contest to meet some singer backstage. I know there was an update here about that as well- that he had refused help.

He used to "steal" pop from the Subway and get free dilly bars from the DQ before they closed (damn you DQ).

No idea where he is. I havent seen him in a while and I used to always see him.
