Quotes
KFC spokesperson
A representative of the fast-food chain KFC.
“We call him Colonel Cody, and I think that nickname will definitely stick with him for life. It was definitely not the birth I expected, but it was worth every bit of pain, and now he has a very weird story to tell his school friends when he grows up.”
