Outside Maynard Nexsen

Outside of the office, I enjoy attending NASCAR races and college and professional football games.  As alumni of the University of South Carolina, my wife and I attend every USC home game.  Also, I often attend NASCAR races in Darlington, SC; Charlotte, NC; Bristol, TN; Talladega, AL; and Daytona, FL.  My father and I have also traveled to Oakland, CA to see a home game of our favorite NFL team, the Oakland Raiders.
