In Adelaide, people have been asking questions about the mysterious Man in The White Suit who has been spotted all over town giving away goodies.
Mix102.3 has revealed they are behind it, and for the last few weeks, a man dressed head to toe in white, with his recognisable white top-hat and white stretched Hummer has been approaching members of the public giving away everything from flowers to cash, expecting nothing in return.
It began with free white roses on Valentine’s Day, icy poles during Adelaide’s recent heatwave and last week, it was money.
The Man in The White Suit has covered considerable ground during his gift-giving pursuit, having been spotted locally in Rundle Mall, Paradise, Port Adelaide, Marion and Seacliff – just to name a few.
People have been asking questions about the man’s origin, taking to Reddit and sending in images to online publications like Glam Adelaide, hoping to find some answers.
While much of the mystery around the Man in the White Suit remains, it has been revealed that Adelaide radio station Mix102.3 is responsible for the gift-giving fella.
Head of KIIS Network, Derek Bargwanna, explains, “We thought it’d be a fun idea to spread kindness and love around Adelaide, with a little mysterious twist.”
In the coming weeks, the Man in the White Suit will continue his generous pursuit giving out thousands in free cash.
With Mad March in all its glory, he is likely to make an appearance at some of Adelaide’s large-scale events, while also continuing his suburban visits.
Derek says, “At the end of the day it’s Adelaideans sharing love and joy. Those who interact with the man in the white suit walk away with big smiles, and more often than not, a small gift.”
