Much more than that, Dustin Perrier. Thank you so much for your time today. Very excited to talk to you. What is it about pickleball that attracts you?

Dustin Puryear
Pickleball. Great. Great question. You know, I played sports through, you know, K-12 and then I, you know, um I'm tall six three. So I played pickup ball through my twenties, but at some point, man, I just started breaking down and I kind of just became a Jim bro, but didn't do sport
