"Joe the Plumber" is coming to Charlottesville for frozen yogurt and a photo opportunity.

Joe Wurzelbacher went from a little known plumber to a nationial political figure during the 2008 presidential campaign.

Now he's coming to Charlottesville and several other Virginia cities to help out Laurence Verga, one of the Republicans who wants to challenge Rep. Tom Perriello (D-5th District).

Wurzelbacher will campaign for Verga at Arch's Frozen Yogurt on The Corner Friday evening. Tickets to the event are $25.

Wow... I bet this will draw tens of people to it! :-) Probably mostly those that are curious to see what kind of person would waste money to see Joe the Plumber.
