Likes to eat Chinese food and go out to Olive Garden. Frosted Flakes are his favorite cereal and Payday is his favorite candy bar. Listens to rap and hip hop music. Once drank a cube of Mountain Dew in one night. His mom was a college gymnast and his dad a college wrestler. His uncle played baseball at Old Dominion.
