DID YOU KNOW?...
Troy says "Hi, I'm Troy Wiggins and I'm married with 4 kids. I live in Mississippi back in the woods with my nearest neighbor about a 1/4 mile away! I travel around the country and work shutdowns and outages at nuclear plants, car plants, steel mills, and industrial plants! I love sports and fantasy sports! My favorite hobby is running! I run marathons usually about 2 a year! I love gardening for my relaxing hobby! I grow fruit and muscadine grapes! My favorite sport is a close tie between football and NASCAR! I like fantasy NASCAR as my favorite fantasy sport! I love to read murder mystery novels and spy novels! I am a big JFK assassination researcher which i read about more than anything! I deer hunt and raccoon hunt! I love Lucky Dog Racing and think we are the best out there! Thats a little about me!" |
