Here's a fact that not many people know. Popeye the Sailor Man was based on an actual person. He was a sailor called Frank 'Rocky' Fiegel, who used to work as a bouncer at Wiebusch's Tavern, Chester, Ilinois, where he met Popeye's creator, Elzie C Crisler.
The city of Chester is very proud of this, and more info from them can be found here
