What was your favorite thing about this stock show/trip?
I enjoyed hanging out with friends from other states during the down days playing football and bags. But my favorite part was definitely winning the barrow show.

What was one thing you tried different with your project this year?
We used tanning lights since we weren't able to get them outside as much during the winter weather.

What is your favorite show product to use?
I'll be honest - my sister does most of the skin and hair care. But my favorite is Weaver Swine Conditioner and Shine.

What is your favorite brand of show jeans or show shoes?
I like Wrangler jeans and Ariat boots.

On the way to the show I am...
either sleeping or watching a TV show. We also listen to livestock podcasts, too.

What is one last minute thing you do before entering the ring?
I always brush my pig’s face and nose off one last time. And my dad always says, "Rock and Roll!"
