Miles Nielsen Named Rockford’s ‘Sexiest Man Alive’

Last week, when we heard that People magazine was going to be naming their "Sexiest Man Alive," we asked ourselves, "why don't we try finding Rockford's sexiest man alive?"

On a whim, we spent the entire day before People's official announcement collecting nominations from our listener family, Facebook, friends, and co-workers.

The original list included:

• James Purifoy, Owner of 15th and Chris
• Brent Potter, Regional Director of Anytime Fitness
• Ian Linnabary, Attorney, Reno & Zahm
• Andy Bufalo, Owner of Bufalo Contracting
• Daxx Neilsen, Drummer for Cheap Trick
• Steve Shannon, 97ZOK
• Jason Lanegraff, Owner of High Caliber Plastering
• The Sweet Lenny, 97ZOK
• Kaleb Price, Personal Trainer for Anytime Fitness
• Michael Prosser, Restauranteur
• Joe Bruscato, State's Attorney
• Adam Bolthouse, Social Security Administration
• Dan O'Shea, Rockford Police Chief
• Joshua Vega-Velez, Soldier

and of course, our Rockford's very first "Sexiest Man Alive:"

Miles Neilsen.

Thank you to everyone who voted and yes, we will be doing this next year; so if there's someone you think should be included, it's never too early to tell us about them.
