The first time we saw him I was a little concerned and unnerved...as I came to the conclusion that he did have Tourette's. But the bartenders took care of him as long as he wasn't pestering customers, so we figured correctly that he was a harmless, nice soul. wow…sat next to Jimmy at the Beach Bar a few weeks ago during our first visit to STJ.

That may explain his behaviour at times. He is a good guy in my book. I may be mistaken, but I believe Jimmy has Tourette’s Syndrome. That may explain his behaviour at times.

I was glad to see him earning his keep a bit, I have to say. Free beers are great, but earning them is even better. He is always amusing, that is for sure. The only time things were iffy was when he threatened my 12 year old son at the BB last year. My son was a little freaked out, so Jimmy had to change seats. Then all was forgotten and now its a good story. I can't find that Facebook page, so I hope I can when I try again later. We saw Jimmy doing his cleanup when we were there last week.

If you want to find another 'Jimmy', go to the tourist bureau next to the post office and find David. He was responsible for painting all of the benches, and keeps that area looking so good. David is a true gentleman and a delight. Great picture. If you want to find another ‘Jimmy’, go to the tourist bureau next to the post office and find David.
