Fat Perez and Sam "Riggs" Bozoian's background

Fat Perez, the adored golf icon known for his humorous YouTube golf videos, became an internet sensation on April 1, 2022.

Perez, whose real name is Nick Stubbe was raised in Richmond and developed a love for golf at a young age because of his father, who introduced him to the sport at the Jefferson Lake Side Country Club, where he began polishing his talents and making advancements in the game.

One name that stands out in the dynamic world of golf content creation is Barstool Sports. Barstool began as a print journal, centered on gambling and fantasy sports forecasts in 2003, founded by Dave Portnoy. However, it quickly moved online in 2007, and in 2016, the skilled Sam "Riggs" Bozoian joined the team.

Riggs was an avid blogger before finding his home at Barstool, publishing thousands of essays on numerous issues over the years. But his actual passion was golf, and his desire was to write about it. His dream came true when Barstool's founder, Portnoy, gave him the opportunity to blog on the Barstool website, which morphed into Riggs' full-time job.

Among Riggs and Barstool's many accomplishments, "Fore Play," their podcast dedicated to all things golf, has stood out as a huge success. The podcast has a tremendous following among golf lovers and is rapidly expanding. When it comes to the future of "Fore Play," Riggs sees it embracing new social platforms and developing original content.
