I was in Iowa one time, and I kept trying to fire up the crowd, and I kept saying, 'How's Ohio doing?' For some reason, they just weren't coming around!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not competing in Iowa for a reason.
I love Ohio.
I'm just a lucky slob from Ohio who happened to be in the right place at the right time.
My district goes a long ways across the southern part of Ohio, so just the opportunity to get to know so many people is a highlight itself, win or lose.
What is it about Iowa? I'm the shortest guy in the state.
I'm a Buckeye at heart. I spend more time giving concerts in Ohio than I do in any other state - perhaps more time than I spend performing anywhere else in the world. I have a great relationship with the people of Ohio, and it's great to be near the OSU when I come to Columbus.
I like Iowa. I know Iowa. I've spent some time in Iowa. Good people in Iowa. It's a great state.
I come here as one of you - an Iowan!
Ohio means a lot to me. Kinda like a second home, just the memories I have here and the fans I made while at Ohio State with the things that I accomplished at that great university.
I got to work for some great administrators at great institutions, and I had an opportunity to coach great players. Iowa is no different.
