Q&A with John

Best advice you've ever been given?

Do the next right thing.

"Be curious. Not Judgmental"- Walt Whitman

Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.

Favorite superhero and why?

My favorite fictional character would be Captain America, however my real-life superhero was my mother.

Favorite Food?

Steak

What gets you out of bed every day?

Most days it's my daughters. Some days it's copious amounts of caffeine.

Any celebrity encounters?

I met Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood at Scheels in 2017.

Favorite place to travel?

Little Gasparilla Island, FL but I would also love to go back to Jamaica some day.

Best concert you've attended?

As an avid fan of live music, this is a tough call. I'd say Garth Brooks, Parker McCollum, Eric Church, and Justin Timberlake are my top four.

If you won the lottery, what's the first thing you'd do?

Probably build my own "Iron Paradise" gym like Dwayne Johnson or Mark Wahlberg or buy courtside season tickets in Allen Field House.

Who is your celebrity doppelganger?

I'm told its Ted from Schitt's Creek, but I'm not sold on that.
