Around The Horn
Occasionally, I’ll find some new or interesting things online that mention Roger and figure it’s worth a mention here. So let’s go around the horn with a few sites.
First, americannonfiction.com has an article by Charles Spencer, who gives a tribute to the month of October. Of course baseball has the World Series in October, and with the Dodgers doing so well this year, he focuses on who else, but Roger Owens, the Famous Peanut Man . In fact, Spencer writes,
“But do you know who’s happier than the Dodgers or the Phillies as they gear up for the NLCS series? No, not Torre…not Charlie…it’s “The Peanut Man”, Roger Owens! He’s guaranteed to be in sold-out business for at least a few more games, and as both the ultimate Dodger fan and a bonafide Indy tycoon, he is surely loving every minute of it. You don’t know the Peanut Man? Jeez, you might as well also be unacquainted with the Great Pumpkin or the Green Monster…you obviously are not an October person.”
For the entire article, read here.
Second, consider a handy site named wiseguidesonline.com that has a wealth of helpful information and reviews for stadium after stadium, from college to pro sports. Under one section of the Dodger Stadium wise guide, Experience The Park, the article points out that even Juan Pierre is no match for the peanut-launching canon of the Loge Level, even at twice his age.
And last, is a business blog entry by Joel Block, who details how someone like Roger has accomplished so much by concentrating on a specific audience.




Roger, You know I am a big fan of yours! Keep throwing the peanuts and I’ll keep showing up at Dodger games. See you next season. Joel
