**IndyGuy** entertained me with pancakes from history recently. I thought this one was so good that I took a photo of it.

Can you identify this pancake?

The lucky winner will receive a photo of the personalized pancake of their choice – made by **IndyGuy** just for you! You may also have the actual pancake mailed to you, but freshness cannot be guaranteed.

It’s colonel Sanders!

No, wait … no, no, actually, that’s most definitely Wilford Brimley. The mustache is unmistakable.

A girl after my own heart. I’ve always been so fond of that painting(s). I’ll have to have him make one of those too.

I had to go google to see who Wilford Brimley was, and yes that pancake does look alot like him. But, BZZZT!

Well, I was going for John Lennon or possibly Salvador Dali, but now that I’m in the historic mode, I’m stumped.

I know you are too thrilled to speak right now **Inigo** , but when you catch your breath let me know what you’d like for your personalized pancake. I may not be able to get him to make it until Sunday, his daughter is getting married tomorrow and he’s grumpy about all the getting married stuff.

Well, a Mandy Patinkin celebrity pancake would be nice. Or maybe a Bart Simpson.
