Default NY Times knows nothing about fishing, confuses Buck Perry with George Perry

You know the old saying mate,
Old fisherman never die, they just smell that way!

When Buck Perry died, the obituary in the NY Times credited him with
catching the world record Largemouth Bass. The idiot writers and
editors at the NY Times couldn't bother to check the difference between
Buck Perry and George Perry. The lazy writer probably plugged "Perry"
and "fishing" into a search engine.


Was surprised to hear Buck Perry was still alive until this year, as he
already looked ancient back in the 1970s.
