A New Hampshire man is a father of three, a grandfather of three, and somehow lots of people are mistaking him for A-list actor and heartthrob Brad Pitt.

Dick Perkins, 77, is getting tired of answering the phone.

His phone number apparently got posted on a chat room web page saying it was Pitt's phone number, and ever since it's been ringing off the hook.

Perkins may not be a Hollywood hunk but he is Internet savvy and now he is also a huge fan of -- who else? Brad Pitt.
