True story... I forget which weekend in May of 1988 it was but our family was making its semi-annual trip from St. Louis to Cleveland (lots of relatives there), and I found a station in mid-Indiana which was playing AT40. As Casey was introducing I Wish I Had A Girl, he mentioned that Henry Lee Summer was from Brazil Indiana. Our car was on Interstate 70 approaching Exit 41/Indiana Route 59... the exit that leads to Brazil Indiana! My parents kidded me for listening to Casey every week but even they had to wonder what the chances were that we would pass by the Brazil exit when Casey introduced Henry Lee as being from Brazil. They never gave me trouble about listening to AT40 again!
