Eugene, Ore.- On a sunny day near campus you could expect to hear a boisterous man riding a bicycle wearing minimal clothing while screaming complaints and profanities. This man, who can often be spotted on 13th Avenue as free entertainment, is named John Brewster; or otherwise known by locals and students as the ‘LTD Guy.’

“You dont see a 60 year old grandpa riding around town raising as much hell as I do,” Brewster says in an interview to Ben Schorr, a UO sophomore who decided to uncover the man behind the voice. Schorr believed that the infamous homeless Eugenian deserved a chance to tell his story to the public.

Schorr talked to DuckTV News about what inspired him to create the ‘LTD Guy’s’ documentary: “I thought that this would be a more provocative subject and I was really curious myself. I just wanted to talk to him and get to know him and I felt this was a good excuse for my own learning.”

Brewster’s screaming demonstrations along with his ridiculous outfits for the past three decades have lead to his fame, and now that Schorr has posted his documentary to his Facebook page, Brewster has gained even more popularity by going viral.

Schorr’s documentary now has over 8,000 views on YouTube, giving curious locals the answers to who John Brewster, ‘The LTD Guy,’ or the ‘crazy man screaming about his nut sack,’ really is.If you want to learn the secrets of Brewster, go on YouTube and check out the documentary footage here.
