CANTON, Ohio — Joe Perkins, better known as ‘The Beer Guy’, who travels around the country slinging suds across stadiums in the U.S., had his uniform accepted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton.
His blue polo and credentials from when he worked SoFi Stadium for Super Bowl LVI was donated as a memento to history and the game of football.
His polo is not only on display in Canton, but at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, NY.
Perkins has been at the grind for the last 17 years, and he caught the vending bug when he moved to Baltimore then learned the tricks of the business from a friend.
Him and his wife Melissa bought an RV recently and are going across the country working as independent contractors at different venues.
“I'm bringing you the stadium beer vending culture of the guy or girl that you see in the aisle during the game with the case of beer,” Perkins said.
