Kevin VanDam won three Bassmaster Elite Series tournaments during the 2016 season. After many silly pundits/trolls wrote off arguably the greatest professional tournament bass angler to date, it was a heck of performance by a pro that just seems to perform under pressure.
Anyway, to celebrate such a victorious season, why not torture the man and really put the pressure on with a trio of question the Presidential candidates would cower from. Oh yeah, VanDam stepped up and answered Three Questions from BassFIRST. Did he survive? Read on.
DL – Do you prefer to hunt or fish?
KVD – That’s a tough one. I do love to hunt. I love to do both. I suppose it depends on the trip. Overall, I love fishing more than hunting. It’s my passion.
DL – If you were elected President of the United States, what would be your first executive decision?
KVD – I would abolish Obamacare. I know the majority of the anglers I fish with are self-employed. When that law was passed, fees went up and seemed to punish anybody making a little money for themselves. The cost is unacceptable and now many insurance companies are withdrawing from it, exchanges are closing. It’s just not a good idea to nationalize healthcare from what I’ve experienced.
DL – Do you prefer beer or soda?
KVD – I like them both. Everyday, I’m drinking soda. Every weekend, beer. Seriously, I really like the various flavors of all of the beer varieties available. It’s enjoyable trying different flavors.
My regular beer is Busch Light. Not only are they a sponsor of mine, I really like the beer. It’s my beer.
