Authorities are searching for a man they say robbed two banks in less than a hour while wearing a silver sweat-inducing jogging suit and toting a pistol.
The first robbery occurred about 11:30 a.m. last Friday at a Wachovia branch at 5650 Memorial Drive, according to the FBI. The second heist occurred about 45 minutes later and 25 miles away at a Bank of America branch at 1550 West Bay Area Boulevard, officials said.
Because of his distinctive get-up, which included sunglasses, the FBI has labeled him the “Sweatin' to the Oldies” robber.
In the Wachovia robbery, he threw large blue bag on the teller's counter, pulled out a semi-automatic handgun and said he'd kill someone if he didn't get money. He aimed his gun at tellers as they stuffed cash into the bag, then fled.

Had to be over 90 degrees F last Friday.
Yeah, but when they think they have him cornered, he’ll have lost 70 pounds, and they won’t recognize him.
