After years of being tweeted about, Nebraska head coach Bo Pelini finally decided to get in on the joke. With only 14 words, Faux finally met Bo. The account has amassed over 73, followers since its creation in Followers span the United States and boast various allegiances.
Yet, despite his popularity, no one truly knows who the man behind FauxPelini is. An Omaha, Neb. He is also an avid Husker fan. It seems like enough information to identify the man behind the account. With only a handful of people aware of his identity, Michael does receive tweets from people he knows. I just nodded and said I would check it out. Despite the constant demand to know who he is, Michael prefers to stay anonymous. Staying anonymous does have its benefits, too.
For Michael, it allows him to continue to develop a voice that many often mistake for the real Pelini. It was sort of lazy and not that interesting, looking back on it. And until recently, none of those individuals really engaged with FauxPelini. I guess he could put in a good word for me if he laughs at one of my tweets.
