About Russell »

I was born and raised in Columbus, Ohio and have been a lifelong fan of the Cincinnati Reds and Cincinnati Bengals.

I enjoy spending time with my family, going to see the Reds and Bengals, playing video games and watching tv. I cannot think of anything better than a night at the GABP with my family.
