I was born in 1955 and I remember the pole-sitter from the mid or late 60’s. We went to a SJSU summer school in those days. The commute took us from Almaden to the downtown area passing the drive-in everyday. We noticed the man sitting up there. It seemed like a long time, months perhaps. My mother said that he as setting some kind of record??? The pole remained long after the man was gone and I found myself looking up at the pole everytime I passed by. I was hoping to see another pole-sitter. Quite odd actually.
