My perfect first date? Maybe a concert or a football game. That would be my ideal first date, but would the girl like it? I don't know.
I was just different. When the other kids gravitated to football or basketball, I went fishing and skating. I was into trapping animals, pheasants and squirrels. Not only was I trapper, I was a taxidermist.
