Yeah, but I feel like if you interacted with anyone you’d know something was up, if they don’t just tell you. Hell, if the bowling alley had TVs they were probably all on the news. Maybe if he was at home I’d believe he didn’t know, but not out somewhere where you have to interact with other people.
This. If you were in public, you knew. Everyone was talking about it. This was before certain news media fully splintered off into exclusively covering alternate realities, so most people at the time were on the same page information-wise, regardless of where they got their news from.
It isn’t impossible that he didn’t know.
Many people don’t listen to the radio or watch TV. No smart phones.
