2024 Spring Football: Questionable Questions with Lander Barton
3/22/2024 10:00 AM | Football
Could you run into him one day in Zion National Park, dressed as a cowboy?
With Spring practice moving right along, UtahUtes.com continues the multi-part series "Questionable Questions". Throughout the Spring, various members of the Football program will be asked about hot topics that are not necessarily football-related and are, well, questionable.
Â
Part two of the series welcomes junior linebacker Lander Barton…
Â
Â
You're a Utah guy, where do you stand on Fry Sauce?
"It's good. Not the best thing in the world but it's decent."
Â
Who is the best singer on the team?
"Falcon Kaumatule. He has the voice of an angel. Any song, he can sing it."
Â
Of the Barton brothers, who is the most competitive?
"I'd like to say I'm competitive. But Cody is the most competitive. He has that craziness in him."
Â
Imagine you are competing at the Summer Olympics. What sport would you compete in and why?
"Beach volleyball. It was the first sport I ever played. I grew up playing with my Mom and my sister down in California."
Â
How far could you throw a chicken nugget?
"With the wind?" (yep) "30 or 40 yards."
Â
Which of the Mighty Five (national parks) in Utah is the best?
"Zion is always awesome. That's where I've been the most. There's so much to do there."
Â
What would you be if you had to wear a Halloween Costume, every day for the rest of your life?
"Cowboy."
Â
If you could make the ultimate sandwich, what would be on it?
"I love a good grilled ham and cheese. Preferably with cheddar cheese, but maybe pepper jack if it isn't grilled."
Â
Speaking of sandwiches…bringing back an old hot debate, is a hot dog a sandwich?
"No. A hot dog is a hot dog—it's its own thing, its own category."
