Jammin' With Orville
Valparaiso is also known as the home of Orville Redenbacher and Redenbacher popcorn. Now it's owned by a conglomerate and they shut down the main plant here in town, but the fact remains that Orville developed his strain of popcorn in the fields right around Valpo.
This bronze was erected in his memory on a bench at the entrance to the downtown park/pavilion. This young guitarist had taken a red foam clown nose, split it in half, and popped the halves into Orville's glasses frames.
So, I asked him to pose for a photo.
