19. My BIL used to handle the Orville Redenbacher account...

.
...for his ad agency in S.F. -- Orville made his biggest
fortune in chicken shit for fertilizer. He also developed
an exceptional hybrid of popcorn. Multi-millionaire farmer
from Indiana (I think).
.
My BIL said that as hokey as Orville looked in those old
commercials, the production company doing the shoot would
actually have to dress him UP -- so what you saw was fairly
sophisticated compared to his norm.
.
Also said he was an EXCEPTIONALLY nice person.
