He is one of the best, always a smile for everyone, magic tricks for the kids; he's an usher who manages the second deck behind home base. One day, he decided to do this hillbilly routine during the 7th inning stretch to the signature "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" (John Denver) and it has caught on; his zillbilly act has become somewhat of a legend.
My husband and I often sit in his section. Last year, he gave me one of his Zillbilly hats.
Here's his routine:

He needs all the thoughts and prayers he can get.
Thanks, all!
