Next the random thought:
Hypothetically, (odds are very long that this will occur) say this fellow ends up on a beach in the south of France, or perhaps the Greek Isles. How many of his fellow beach goers would grasp the (in)significance of his fan obsession? I can hear them (heavy French accent), "Is that poor fellow sick? Surely that isn't a crude attempt to portray tooth of the hound around the letter A? Is that A wearing a Beret, or is that a mullet?"
Probably would (much to his dismay) garner a few passing "What the France" head scratches, and immediately eliminate him from casting his seed amongst the locals.
