The Godfather

As Troy's Godfather, Eddie never missed an opportunity to bring home a gift from every traveling adventure. Trinkets including a Bigfoot figurine and a Loch Ness Monster stuffed animal to t-shirts from Hollywood and riding the Carson Wentz Wagon are among our favorites. Troy is very lucky to have had such a special uncle as his Godfather.
