Has Lootie ever been identified? He could've cashed in on that image.

I always chuckled at the bottle in his back pocket.

Did I read Lootie, a great American and master of ingenuity had passed away?

I wonder if he has one in the other back pocket?

The world may never know!

The water surface has a mystical appearance. He must be an angel sent down.

Looks like he has a single Bud Light in there

He could very well be a woman by now

I'm surprised the Internet hasn't identified him.

Heineken should have done a full out press to find this guy and have him market their beer. The fake bravado guy that tries to be like Paul Allen would have never made it to print ads.

Where is this guy 20 years later? Any pics of him? What is life like for him.

“I sense great vulnerability. A man-child crying out for love. An innocent orphan in the post-modern world.”

“I see a parasite. A sexually depraved miscreant who is seeking only to gratify his basest and most immediate urges.”

“His struggle is man's struggle. He lifts my spirit.”

“He is a loathsome, offensive brute. Yet I can’t look away.”

“He transcends time and space.”

“He sickens me.”

“I love it.”

“Me too.”

I knew what the photo was going to be before I even opened the thread.

Why New Orleans doesn’t have a statue to this man is quite puzzling?

I would donate money to create a public fountain with a life size realisitic bronze of him with the beer at the center of it and call it the Katrina fountain.

I knew what it was before I clicked the thread. I still laughed.

That bigger bottle laying flat across the Heinekens has to be Colt 45.
