[edit] Revert
I reverted the edit about the "Lance Berkman is not Jewish, as some rumored him to be." I'm a relatively large Berkman fan, and I have not: A. Read anything rumoring this or B. heard anyone wonder about this. Since the anonymous user didn't give any sources, I reverted. --JRed 00:39, 10 January 2006 (UTC)
I live in Houston and my friend goes to church with him...i'll update you with the church when I get a chance to ask my friend.
He goes to my sister's church. I don't know if I should give the name, but it has six letters starting with a B.
who the hell wrote this, "Lance Berkman's first occupation, before baseball, was acting as a prostitute. Recently he admitted to this on live television, claiming his favorite gay sex position was a krispy kream. When the news reporters asked him what this involved, Lanced replied with "Its when u ejaculate into a males asshole, wait 3 hours and spoon it into a donut and eat it." After hearing this the news reporter, Jimmy Sanso along with the whole fox 25 news crew, committed mass suicide." i dobut this true and why the hell has it not been reverted, well i do it myself.
[edit] Odds and Ends
His high school job was loading and delivering cabinets for a cabinet warehouse.
Fans in the outfield stands at Wrigley Field teased Berkman, calling him fat during an entire game. Then, some rowdy fans threw two Twinkies at him. He ate one of the Twinkies while on the field, and put the other in his back pocket to eat later.
Berkman faked a knee injury while jogging toward the dugout from the outfield, thinking the third out had been recorded. As he was jogging in, he realized there were only two outs, and went down with his "injury." When the trainer came to Berkman's side, Berkman explained the confusion and the trainer covered for him.
There is a rumor that he still drives around in a beat-up truck from college that is full of mud and has no air conditioning.
His nickname was Fat Elvis. However, Berkman became tired of this nickname and has begun to promote himself as "The Big Puma." The genesis of this nickname is that he is a sleek, athletic player that moves with speed and grace, much like a puma or cougar.
Maybe somebody can elaborate on these odds and ends.........
