Filling Shoes At the 'Shoeless' Joe Museum in Greenville, South Carolina-- Part 1
From the Oct. 22, 2019, Chicago Sun-Times by Mitch Dudek
Chicago bartender heading to South Carolina to run shrine to tarnished White Sox legend.
He may have been the greatest baseball player ever, but sadly is disgraces and was kicked out of baseball with the 1919 Chicago Black Sox.
Dan Wallach is a huge Joe Jackson fan. His right foot even has a tattoo of Joe Jackson's autograph. Even if his tattoo doesn't match the real Joe Jackson autograph.
Dan Wallach, 32, is abandoning his life in Chicago and moving to Greenville, S.C. That means, selling his home in Skokie and quitting his job at Yakzies (across from Wrigley Field) and taking over operations at the Shoeless Joe Jackson Museum.
And, yes, despite working by Wrigley Field, Dan is a bona fide White Sox fan.
That museum is inside Joe Jackson's house.
Go You White Sox. --CootSox
