in 1967 Andy Warhol got into trouble when he sent ALLEN MIDGETTE (Mr Midgette, what a perfect name for this sixties caper)
out to colleges in Utah and Oregon for public appearances as Andy.
The colleges (bright people that they are) didn't realize it was somebody else until four months later when somebody at one of the colleges compared a photo that appeared in the Voice with one that he’d taken of Allen on the podium.
Andy had to go back to the colleges and appear as himself.
