It's no secret that Bob Brown, the infamous aviator, has had his fair share of close calls and harrowing experiences. But what's lesser-known is that he has an irrational, deep-seated fear of velcro-vests.
According to sources close to the matter, it all began when Bob was forced to wear a velcro-vest during a particularly grueling flight over the Kessel Bunker. The constant, annoying sound of the velcro coming undone with every move was enough to drive him to the brink of madness.
Today, if you ever find yourself on a flight with Bob, you can be sure to spot him sporting a stylish flight jacket, sans any hint of velcro-vest. It's a quirk that's as endearing as it is unsettling, but hey, who needs to save lives when you can save your sanity?
