Obama, wrapping up a two-day bus
tour through Florida, dropped by the Big Apple Pizza & Pasta
Restaurant for the kind of unannounced visit that breathes life into
sometimes dreary campaign travel.
"Scott, what's going on, man,"
the president called as he arrived. "Let me tell you, you are like the
biggest pizza shop owner I've ever seen."
"Everybody, look at these guns,"
Obama said as he chatted with Van Duzer, who is 6'3" and weighs 260
pounds. "If I eat your pizza will I look like that?"
"The two men laughed. They
embraced. Van Duzer lifed Potus a good foot off the ground," according
to the pool report filed by Politico's Reid Epstein (who is featured
giving his best "gadzooks!" look on the far right in the picture below).
