It's "Old Mr. Perkins," who stands in the stag line with the slumped-over teenaged boys, not "Old Man Perkins." Or were you talking about a different Mr. Perkins? Anyway, here are a few more: A: Members of a particular club refer to Jubal Foster as "Old Man Foster" (I know which club it is, but I can't tell ya) 2: Andy's first job was making popcorn at the movie theater (see "Opie's Drugstore Job" from season 8). On his first night, he made too much popcorn, and Old Man MacKnight had to give it away. Andy unknowingly started a dangerous trend: These days, they charge you $15 for a small popcorn, to make up for previous nights when they had to throw the stuff away. c: In "Stranger in Town," Andy reads a news article about Old Man Joe MacKnight, who was over 100 years old. This could be the same man who ran the movie theater. IV: Also in season 8, Barney suggests Old Man McCabe's place as a good spot to host a summit meeting. --Paul Mulik P.S.
