FAMILY HISTORY My grandpa being a historian was one of his many talents. We used to play a game where whenever we stopped at a stop light, I got to pick the direction. No matter which direction I chose, we always ended up at an old-school diner in the Loess Hills. The Phillips Avenue Diner reminds me of those afternoons spent with him. TEE UP Golfing has always been a family activity, and in the summer I enjoy getting out on the green with my brother and nephews. I enjoy playing at Grand Falls Casino and Golf Resort . Who doesn’t love hitting a ball over a waterfall, even though mine ends up in the water more often than not? LET’S PLAY HOCKEY My wife took me to my first Sioux Falls Stampede Hockey game last year, and since then I’ve fallen in love with the sport and energy of the crowd. Now I’m a Las Vegas Knights fan because of their mascot who is decked out in full armor, a sword, and a shield that leads the team onto the ice. FOOTBALL FANATIC When I was 5 years old I decided I was a Green Bay Packers fan, because who doesn’t love cheese? My family held season tickets to the Minnesota Vikings while I was growing up—30 years later, I still enjoy watching both teams.
