Why that guy?

Let us explain. Eyewitness Sports and Associated Press crews at Minute Maid Park before Astros-Yankees Game 2 couldn't ignore Miller's sign with a "big, if true" claim.
"I quit my job to be here," the sign read, with a crudely created Astros logo on a poster board.
What was also hard to ignore was that some of the letters in the sign seem uniformly stenciled while three of them were markered in.
(We wonder if he still had his job, he would have been able to buy the remaining letters, but we digress.)
ABC13 had to ask Miller why.
According to him, he couldn't get the time off from his management job at a nutrition shop.
Minute Maid Park and the Astros are no strangers to hosting offbeat fans of all walks of life.

ABC13 has talked to, among others, voodoo-cursing fan, custom car-wrapping fan, a multi-generational family of fans who doesn't miss Opening Day, and 'Nervously Excited' Astros fan.
