JANESVILLE, WI - A bachelor hopes his unique approach to dating will help him find his future partner.
Robert Siegfried, 43, said he's exhausted all other dating options.
"Dating sites just weren't working for me," he said. "Match, Tinder, just none of them were working."
He's turned to an electronic billboard along Milton Avenue in Janesville to find the love of his life. By calling the number he lists, he tells "local, honest women" to leave him a message.
“I like country music. The American flag for the USA. I’m a country boy at heart," Siegfried said while describing his photo on the billboard.
So far, Siegfried says he hasn't had much success from the billboard. Many people who reach out to him, he said, are not the person he's looking for.
"You'd be surprised at how many pictures I'm getting," Siegfried said. "It's crazy. It's just like, oh, man, next, next, next, next, next."
For those who've seen the billboard in the area, they've found the approach unique.
"Definitely better than Tinder and all the other dating apps," said Kenneth Valez. "Janesville has a lot of populous so I'm sure he'll get some hello's."
This "#1 Bachelor" hopes this sign brings him closer to the one -- and that she will take it as a true sign.
"Go big or go home. I mean you don't get any bigger than this," Siegfried said. "I hope people take it seriously. I hope people take it seriously. Don't be shy, call me."
Siegfried said the sign will likely be at more locations in Janesville in the coming days and weeks.
"I'm just looking for that special someone," he said.
That beer belly is probably a real turn on for most prospects.
Damn… I was going to comment but I have to quickly go and find my TV remote…. NIKKI HALEY IS ON FOX NEWS YET AGAIN so I have to flee that channel.
“JFK couldn’t keep it in his own pants” (thanks, Rush”)
And neither could Teddy, and drive…
Stay off the dating apps, they’re a waste of time and money. Ask me how I know.
Work on being the best version of yourself that you can be. Physically. Emotionally. Spiritually. Financially. Get hobbies. Build friendships.
Never try to sell yourself to women because if they’re shopping, they’ll put you back on the shelf if a better deal comes along; become something that they want to invest in.
Yep. I once had a couple of platonic dates with a promising specimen. But when I asked why he divorced after 25 years, he said, "She put on a few pounds; but I go to the gym." Uh, what about your wrinkles and hair loss, dude? Buh-bye!
Nothing says “I’m your man!” like a restraining order. Oh baby.
You, sir, have a beautiful attitude. I am sure she was grateful to have you.
Some many of these type people’s problem is due to seeking a fantasy mate.
I like the initiative a lot.
Hope he’s good at screening the responders.

That is hilarious. I would do the same but I have preemptively solved that TV channel problem as of 08NOV20.

It could be a love match. This guy poses & seems to think he is Pierce Brosnan material. Delusional.
From what I've seen from the movies my wife watches, the ideal guy is confident, successful and masculine. He's also been waiting for his old flame to come back to the small town he's living in, because she is tired of big city guys. An old pickup truck in good condition also seems to be a giveaway.
In other words, be the perfect guy and women will come looking for you. At least, that's how it works in the movies.
And the woman I posted named AWE, was involved in a murder and she was part of the Honey trap. Who would think, “yeah that’s what I want to have sexy time with”?
Oh, c’mon, hes just gettin to the “old enough to know better, young enough to do it anyways” stage. You know how boring it gets up here.
Maybe there just arent that many women who dreamed of dating the sheriff from some bad 70s movie.
I once dated a girl that lived several miles away. I would get up after everyone else went to bed and run miles down a railroad track in the middle of the night to visit for a couple of hours. Then I had to turn around and run back before anyone in either house woke and noticed.
I should have had your insight, but it did get me in better shape.
“Wisconsin’s #1 Eligible Batchelor” . . .
Sure puts the rest of the state in a bad light.
Well the billboard ad asks for them to be honest. Something tells me he is looking for the elusive unicorn.
