Former United Methodist Church Minister Oscar Poole, changed careers to start Col. Poole's Georgia BBQ Inc. in East Ellijay, GA. Dressed in his yellow suit, and playing the piano for his customers, Oscar Poole has become widely known for his eccentricities as well as his barbecue. From the creation of his "Pig Hill of Fame" in back of his restaurant, to his "Pigmobile," Poole says that at the age of 75, he is just trying to have fun. "you ever hear that song Brighten the corner where you are," he asked. "Well, I'll just tell you I got this yellow suit on and I go over in the corner and brighten the corner where I am."
