A giant chicken-outfit-clad stalker hounded President Gerald Ford in his 1976 presidential campaign. The huge "Pollo Loco" followed Ford from campaign stop to campaign stop, at times sharing the stage with him, interviewing him and even embracing him. Rather than becoming annoyed, Brother Ford played along with the prank and brought some levity to an otherwise dreary campaign. Today, that same "chicken" who made his national debut campaigning with Gerald Ford has gone on to fame in his own right. He is now known as... The San Diego Chicken.
