Sailor Dan

Many people recognize this man walking around town. He is know an Sailor Dan for his ship sketches and unmistakable personality. He is so famous that he 12 729 likes on facebook!  "In Saskatoon, he's a novelty, he sticks out like a sore thumb." -StarPhoenix


One of Sailor Dan's Sketches

"His red shoes, green socks and yellow corduroy pants are complemented by a shiny dollar sign belt buckle. A worn-down mermaid tattoo is visible below his rolled up sleeves. His coffee sits on the table to his left -- no cream, two scoops of sugar. Directly in front of him is a clean white bristol board. He takes out one of the six black Sharpie pens hooked to his shirt collar, lifts off his fluorescent orange Mickey Mouse hat, slicks back his silver and black hair and begins to draw, one line at a time." 
 
What a great Saskatoon souvenir, eh?


Sarah: "Im going to Thailand!"
Sailor Dan: "How are you getting there?"
Sarah: "Im taking a plane."
Sailor Dan: "Ohh.." 
(He was so sad I wasn't sailing across the ocean! Haha)
