Description

From 1979 till 1986, Barry Bremen, a Detroit area novelty goods salesman, became known in the sports world as the great imposter. Playfully seeking the spotlight, Bremen posed as a player in major league baseball, the NBA, the NFL, and as a PGA tour golfer, an NHL referee, and even a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader. But years after he passed away, another secret of his was uncovered.
