1Source- What is your favorite movie and why?
BP - I have a lot of favorite movies, but I'd say Dumb and Dumber. I think it has some of the greatest one-liners. For example, "You've had an extra pair of gloves this whole time? Yeah, we're in the Rockies." All sorts of lines like that that don't make a lot of sense, but they are very funny to me.
1Source - Where would you go for your fantasy fishing trip?
BP - Lake Biwa in Japan. I'd throw giant swimbaits and try for one of those freak largemouth.
1Source - Who is your favorite professional wrestler?
BP - I have never watched professional wrestling. It's not real wrestling. I'm not saying the wrestlers aren't athletes or that they don't get hurt, it's just not a sport.
1Source - What was your worst lodging experience on the road?
BP - It was in 2010. Me and a buddy had been sleeping in a truck. We were heading to the TBF Nationals in Tennessee. My boat was rear-ended. So, we had no boat to practice in for the event. We had very little money. We decided to stay in a cheap motel. The people running the place barely spoke English. I also think the majority of people at the motel lived there full-time. I'm pretty sure there was a lot of drug trafficking going on. We had no money and no other choice. That was the worst.

BP - Better than Kevin VanDam!
