Rex Chapman is a comeback story and a Twitter feed for our time
Posted Mar 27, 2020
"A social media influencer. I'm not even sure what that means," Rex Chapman says from his home in Lexington, Kentucky. "Me, an influencer? Man, I hope not." As unlikely as that idea once might have seemed, Chapman has more than 580,000 Twitter followers. That's 10 times more than he had a year ago, a swelling of devotees that began with a tweet in Jan. 2019.
