Comments: "Look - up in the sky"... It's a bird.... It's a plane....  No, actually it's "Flem Man!"

Not real sure of this guy's special powers but one thing's for sure, Flem Man has a place in the history books of Flemington.  Like Superman, he may have come to us as "a strange visitor from another planet", but I seem to remember Flem Man actually first arriving on the scene as a contestent in the annual "Purple Night" contest and never looked back.  Somehow, wearing purple tights and a white cape while being suspended by a wrecker was all the special talent needed to win over the fans of the square. 

Not really sure of Flem Man's secret identity and even if I knew, I could never devulge it.  After all, doesn't every super hero deserve a little privacy?....

06/16/04 Lance Huff I remember Steve Miller Band's "Abbra Caddabbra" playing on the PA system while Flem Man circled the track. I'm sure it was early 80's because I was only 5yrs old in 1980.
12/28/05 Dan I'm proud to say that masked man is my father haha. I was just wondering if anyone else had any pictures of Flem Man from back in the day. Those were some great times and we would love to get our hands on some old photos of him in action. Please contact me at: stripp3@tcnj.edu  if you have anything at all, thanks so much. He's some man - He's Flem Man.
