I've talked to him probably no less than a dozen times around Pittsburgh. Car shows, local casino, Little Italy Days, the airport (two times actually, including once where he told me he was flying direct to Miami but was at a terminal for a plane heading to Toronto), the local grocery store, a home and garden show, and probably a few more places that will come to me later. You name a place, and you probably bumped into Virgil there.
Like Unholy Diver said, nice guy but you can tell that elevator didn't quite go to the top floor. Totally harmless but could be a bit aggressive on his polaroid sales pitch.
