I had a similar story of a customer calling up and requesting an oddly specific old green drab epoxy primer in quart size. Told the customer to come back next week and I'll have it in stock. Next work rolls around, guy comes in and says, "I hear you have a quart of green drab epoxy". I asked, "Is your name Bruce?" to which he affirmed it was and I sold him the primer. Next day, the real Bruce comes in looking for his primer and I just started laughing. To this day, the real Bruce never let's me forget it. Lol.
What are the chances?
