Where were you born? Tampa, FL
Current hometown: Brandon, FL
Ever live anywhere else?: Riverview, Gainesville (college)
Nationality/ethnicity: White (mostly English/German, possibly other)
Job: High School Instructor
Favorite hockey team: Lightning
Why do you like them? I was 10 during the inaugural season, which got me hooked on watching and playing the sport. They were the hometown team.
Favorite hockey team as a kid (if different):I was partial to the Red Wings during the 90's because my Dad is originally from Detroit and my introduction and growing fascination with hockey coincided with the resurgence of the 'Wings franchise.
Least favorite: Flyers (Tampa fan should be naturally inclined to "hate" Philly teams but that the Lightning's first foray into the playoffs ended at the hands of Eric Lindros and the Flyers, then Gratton-gate and, of course, the 2004 ECF all serve to seal the deal)
Favorite active player on your favorite team: I have to pick one? St. Louis (Stamkos, Lecavalier and Hedman close behind)
Favorite active player on another team: Shea Weber
All time favorite player if different:
Favorite teams in other sports: Bucs, Rays, Gators, USF Bulls
Favorite TV show:The Walking Dead, Breaking Bad, Deadwood, Modern Family
Favorite beer or alcoholic beverage of choice: Grimbergen, Stella Artois, PBR (not joking!), Maker's Mark
