Wedding Party
Bobby Sandberg
Best Man
WE HAVE MATCHING BACK TATTOOS FROM THE PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN WE AGREED TO GET WHEN WE WERE 23 . I should just end it there because I mean really what else do you need to know about a guy. I grew up as an only child so I was constantly bothering Bobby to hang out when we were younger. He could have told me to get lost at any time, he was a lot cooler than me in school.. like a lot.. He was a grade ahead of me.. He was in a band called the WILD STALLIONS.. HE WON BEST EYES IN SENIOR YEAR... I didn't even know that was a thing until I saw he won it. He didn't tell me to get lost though.. we kept hanging out year after year and in doing so helped to build the friendship we have today. He is literally one of the coolest people I know, my first sentence should have been enough.
Nic Pennings (the french Nic)
Groomsman
Nic had me up at his old boat house once and I glimpsed the bottom of his foot where he had a tattoo. I asked him Nic, why do you have a tattoo on the bottom of your foot? He told me he lost a drunken bet in college and if he lost he had to get a Red Sox tattoo some where on his body, he got it on the bottom of his foot so he could step on them every time he walked. That tells you some key things about Nic's character. 1. He pays his bets. 2. He has integrity. 3. He really hates the Boston Red Sox. This guy is going to make an awesome grandfather.
Joseph Bradley (JB)
Groomsman
I have been hanging out with JB for around his whole life. If I had to crown a future mayor of Albany New York it would be him. You could play 7 degree's of separation with Joey Bradley. None of those reasons are why I picked him to be my groomsman. I picked him because he is easily the best person I know and the embodiment of a fun time.
Chris Saxton
Groomsman
When I first met Chris I kind of invited myself/was invited by proxy to his 10th grade birthday party. We have literally been friends since. He is the funniest person I know with out having a single joke at his disposal. I am very close to live streaming football Sundays with him in secret and splitting none of the profits with him. I also may have to get an annulment from Chris before I can get married to Katlin.. I am pretty sure we are common law married at this point. Do you like the Elton John song "Rocket Man"?
Lou VJLKJKE#OIIK@N (Sweetness)
Groomsman
I have two men in my phone saved for emergencies. One of the those men is Lou my lawyer. Somewhere in my home I have a check from Lou that is cash able in about 20 years for 16 cents. Lou is also the only man I know with a basis of measurement, time and distance surrounding his fingers. I think what I like most about Lou is that you never have to nudge him to have a good time, he started 15 minutes ago and is ordering another pitcher. Grannies for ONE.
Jonathan Hussar
Groomsman
I never moved away and went to college and often felt like I had missed something by not experiencing that. That feeling ended after spending a semester with this animal. He is literally one of the best things that I got out of my college experience. On the rare occasion I need to be convinced to have a good time he can usually persuade me. After all that though i still prefer Ghost Huss.
Steve Swider
Groomsman
I have often thought that friends are a lot like books, some are thinner or thicker depending on the amount of experiences you have with them. I have known Steve since Kindergarten when he hit me in the head with a 2x4 and we have been fast friends ever since. I once slept on Steve's couch for 3 months during the summer and was basically adopted as an honorary Swider. Through most of our friendship I have been the irresponsible voice in the conversation while Steve takes on the more responsible role. Some of the best times in my life are when Steve forgets he has the responsible role... I know that among my many friends Steve is one of the few I could not see for a week, a month, or a year and pick back up with as if no time has passed. He is one of my favorite books to read.
Greg Sarris
Groomsman
Greg Sarris is the reason I will probably have back problems later in my life because I AM DOING ALL THE WORK AT HIS HOUSE WHILE HE IS AT HOME DEPOT PICKING UP SUPPLIES... I can hear him complaining as I write this, its a sort of vague half formed complaint that even he cannot explain. In truth I have learned more from Greg about home construction than anyone I know. He has more drive, determination and follow through than any man I know. He is the driving force behind a lot of my projects getting done. He is also very generous with his truck.. btw Greg if you are reading this I need the truck tomorrow.
Alex Mock
Groomsman
Me and Alex have only known each other a few short years, in that small amount of time he has already shown me one irrefutable fact. He is way cooler than I was at 22. He owns a motorcycle. He plays multiple instruments. He has a girlfriend. He works for the cops. I could not be happier that me and Alex get to be brothers and I am sure a lot of great times lay ahead of us.
