I still own my first car – a 1968 bright red Mustang convertible. #CleanOneOwner
I played the drums in a rock band in high school. We were terrible. #TheEnd
I’m better at numbers than golf, but I have actually hit a hole in one! #ItsintheHole

Even though I had never played golf, I went out for the team as a high school freshman. That coincided with Texas’ 1st year of “no pass, no play.” Guess who was the only guy to pass and letter in golf?! #ItsLonelyAtTheTop
I have been keeping score at baseball games since I was 11 years old. For non-scorers: a backward K is baseball talk for “strike out looking.” #BaseballFreak
I lived in 10 different Texas cities growing up from Sweetwater to LaPorte. #NowhereToCallHome
I really like rap music. No, really. #TheRealSlimShady
I attended the longest and highest scoring game in college football history. #GigEm
I may not look like it but I LOVE to cook and I’m pretty good! #OfCourseYouAre
I took a 440 foot bungee jump dive in New Zealand experiencing a 5.5 second free fall. #LetsDoItAgain
As a finalist on the Wide World of Sports in 1987, I competed in the “Play a Sport with a Celebrity” contest and suggested Monopoly with Donald Trump. I even dressed up like the Art of The Deal book cover! #RealEstateTycoons
I am 6’6” and my primary sport in college was not basketball! #NewMexicoLobosFootball
I was an Evel Knievel fan and spent my younger days jumping trash cans on my modified Schwinn Stingray. Pretty sure I invented the mountain bike. #10TrashCanLimit
I was stranded for a week in the Aleutian Island mountains in Alaska during the coldest week on record without a sleeping bag or back pack. I survived, no thanks to my guide! #PsychoGuide
Like many families, my wife and I had grandfathers who served in WWII. The only difference is that one fought for the Germans and one fought for the United States. #AHouseDivided
In high school, I worked for UPS unloading packages from 18-wheelers. #WhatCanBrownDoForYou
I played field hockey and danced ballet during high school. #GracefulJock
