Robert,
just one huh? That's tough. The first thing to do is get it a business
agent and come up with some colorful story for its' origin (You know
like being found in the garden of some hermit high in the [name of
mountain here].) Be sure to get pictures. Does it vaguely resemble any
known saint? Be sure to try public access TV. I mean whoop it up.
Finally, at some point it you should probably taste it. If it's any
good, save some seeds.

My daughter gave me a tomato plant this spring originating many years
back from my son-in-law's family - a somewhat typical Italian red
tomato, slightly plumper than a Roma . It's doing well with 7 or 8
normal looking tomatoes, but appears to have a 'sport', a single large
bulbous tomato off one branch bearing no resmblance to the others.
Is this common with tomatoes? If not, depending on how it looks at
maturity, is it something I should get excited about and pursue with a
local expert?

I believe that is the stuff of evolution, namely, happenstance and
survival. IT is after all a tomato.
Slice it, salt it, and enjoy.

How about it's tastes? If it's good you can make it into tomato juice.
