What’s your sign?

Whatever you need it to be, sugar.

How would you describe your personality?
Outgoing, entrepreneurial, always up for a good laugh.

What is your ideal date?
We go see a game, hit the bars after and see where the night takes us (your place or mine?)

Favorite color and how that reflects your personality?
What kind of question is that?

What are your hobbies?
I’m big on sports. Watching, not doing.

Do you have any pets?
I don’t have the time. I’m into heavy petting though. Does that count?

Boilermaker.

Such a night owl that it often makes me a morning person too.

What’s your idea of a perfect day?
I sleep in, go to a park with my boy to hit a few balls, afterwards my buds come over and I throw a few steaks on the grill. At the end of the day you and me have a date with the couch (or the bed for that matter).

Are you an adventurous person?
Hell yeah! Come along with me and I will guarantee you a night you’ll never forget!

Do you believe in love at first sight?
Nah, that’s way too mushy.

Big Kahuna. Maybe someday you’ll get to find out why…

A billion dollars, nine more kids, and to bring back the steel plant.

Buffalo wings of course!

Bodacious fun bags.

What are your turn-offs?
Nagging.

“A loser becomes, for just a few minutes, a winner.” -The New York Times

Six unemployed steelworkers in Buffalo, New York are miserable. They have no cash and no prospects. Meanwhile, they discover their wives going crazy over male strippers. The men set out to make some quick cash showing off their “real men” bodies by becoming strippers themselves. As the guys work through their fears, self-consciousness and anxieties, they find the courage to “let it all hang out.” Based on the cult hit film of the same name and a ten-time Tony Award nominee, The Full Monty is a raucous, pop/rock musical send up of gender expectations and stereotypes that takes it all off in the most anticipated closing number of any show
