Bob Berdella
 

What a sick **** that guy was. I'm amazed how little it's talked about though. I just learned about him the past few years as I'm a regular at the Westport Fleamarket. Any of the CP old timers have any dealings with the guy?

I guess that since we're suffering through posts like "What's the best KC BBQ?" we should do this again as well.

I don't recall any threads about this and the search function is broke. Though its too bad he didn't puncture your anal cavity with his throbber.

He seemed nice.

Did he cook good BBQ?

If you liked your meat done with a car battery.

Didn't someone make an awful low budget movie about this sicko?

Nice and rapey. He'd even keep your head as a souvenir if you were lucky.

I remember hearing of his shop in Westport back in the day - Bob's Bizarre Bazar. Good thing I was too young to wander Westport back in those days. And also a good thing that I wasn't a male prostitute, as well.

I was working renovating office buildings during that time. The day after the news broke our foreman just kept making up catchy tunes with Berdella's name in them all day: "Big Bohhhb Berdella". It was hilarious in a bizarre way. Sometimes he'd just go "Berdella Berdella Berdella Berdella Berdella" for like a minute straight. He called me and the other young gopher who worked there the Berdella Twins for like a month.

To this day I think that dude was a comic genius who missed his calling.

When the newspapers were talking to his neighbors after he was arrested, they said he'd always show up at the neighborhood watch pot luck dinner, and always brought tasty and unusual covered dishes.

I'm not kidding...
