Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie and putting yourself in harm’s way for the sake of going viral: These are just four things that are uniquely American.
Just ask Lane Pittman (aka: “Florida Man”) who once again took on the mighty winds of a hurricane (this time it’s Hurricane Florence) in a pair of royal blue boxer shorts and an American flag while Slayer’s “Raining Blood” provides the soundtrack.
“Florida Man” first went viral in 2016 as he braved Hurricane Matthew. So far in all of the reporting, it is not yet known if he’s single, but we’re crossing our fingers in hopes he is, amiright ladies?
