EDIT: I love this community. So interconnected. Very proud we all look out for each other :)
Ok so. Maybe this is kinda niche. I’m a 21 y/o ACR, went to high school here and live in Arredondo area.
From approx 2019-2023 (give or take Covid), I took the bus every day, and on the route home, I’d always see this one guy juggling on the side or median of Archer Road.
White guy, thick curly brown/reddish hair, sleeveless shirts, sometimes wore a cap? (I know that’s not a lot to go off of, but tbh I paid more attention to his juggling than his appearance 😭). I think I mainly saw him on the stretch of Archer Road near the interstate, and not anywhere east of 34th street. Might have seen him west of the interstate though.
But anyway: his juggling!! Each time on the bus ride home, I’d look out for him, and I’d be so happy when I caught a flash of his tennis balls in the air. Every time I saw this guy, he was juggling, to the point where I affectionately called him “juggler dude” in my head. Still think of him that way. Maybe I’ve developed a parasocial relationship with him, idk. He doesn’t even know I exist, but to me he’s a local celeb.
I saw him juggling for at least a few years (again, approximately 2019-2023 range?) including after I graduated high school, but I think it’s now been a couple years since I’ve seen him.
Since I see lots of “missed connections” type threads on here, I decided to finally post this, on the off chance others have noticed and are thinking of him too.
Fingers crossed this post doesn’t come across as creepy or stalker ish. I’m not trying to dox anyone. I just wanna know if “juggler dude” is doing alright. I hope he is.
TL;DR: Used to see a guy juggling tennis balls on Archer Road by the interstate. Been a few years since I’ve seen him, and wanted to check if anyone knows what he’s been up to.
