Tim Lincolnhol
Best Man
Tim aka "Pops" or "The Man" has been there from very beginning, from early morning Grizzly bear watching in Yellowstone to belaying Matt up countless climbing walls to numerous trout stream adventures throughout the country. When it came to choosing the best man there was only one choice. Fun Fact: Although Pops won't publicly admit it, he has been getting outfished since that August day in 1988.
Zach Lincolnhol
Groomsman
Zach has been by Matt's side since 1990, so its fitting for him to be by his side on "the" day. Matt and Zach grew up outdoors camping to building forts to always ending up in the penalty box from roughhousing in the bonus room. Zach is quite the world traveler having recently been to Belgium, China & Ireland. Fun Fact: Zach's favorite food is Nachos. So instead of ordering Zach a drink, one would be wise to send over a plate of Nachos. Trust me...
AJ Brundrett
Groomsman
Aj & Matt met as apartment neighbors as a freshman and they remained roommates throughout college. Their adventures include covert Christmas decoration operations, rushed trips to Augusta National & numerous fishing trips to Southwest Florida. Fun Fact: Ajs love of Short Sleeve Button Down Shirts (SSBD'S) rubbed off on Matt, so you can thank Aj for some of the fashion you'll see on the wedding weekend.
John Lee
Groomsman
John & Matt were roommates in College in the fabled 213 Wyatt apartment. Both ended up in Florida after college, which led to numerous adventures from the Keys to St Pete. The fishing stories run long between John and Matt. From jumping barracuda, chumming water rituals to landing Tarpon - you can't go wrong asking John about one of them. Fun Fact: John is quite the Nalgene enthusiast, so if you see him parched on the wedding weekend he might need some help finding one of his many Nalgenes.
Brad Paradise
Groomsman
Mr. Paradise was also one of Matt's roommates in college, although his residence was at the inferior 212 Wyatt. Brad is a simple man with simple interests which include exaggerations ( affectionately known as bradggerations), over-hyping Chipotle burritos, AC/DC's Thunderstruck and watching reruns of Las Vegas. Fun Fact: Brad is known to be an avid song killer due to overplaying. So please, if you see him around the source of the music, politely escort him away (unless it's Thunderstruck).
John Finch
Groomsman
John, Aka "The Captain" has been friends with Matt since he randomly showed up to Matt's 29th birthday on Captiva.
