9. He used to own a restaurant
Before his time on The Bachelorette and Bachelor in Paradise, Colton owned. . . a restaurant? Guess that gives some new perspective to the time he famously chowed down on hot dogs with fellow contestant Tia Booth.
This definitely seems to be one of the less known facts about our new Bachelor. The restaurant was located in Washington, Illinois and was called 4th and Goal (get it, sports fans?). It had a sports bar feel, which perfectly reflected Coltonâs time spent professionally playing football. According to a local source, he originally wanted to own a restaurant because itâs a lot like sports in that the work is âfast-pacedâ and âa high pressure environment.â
Unfortunately, 4th and Goal no longer exists. Coltonâs aunt and uncle took over and the restaurant has since been completely overhauled.
He may not be in the food business anymore, but there are still some important takeaways from Coltonâs time at 4th and Goal. For one thing, he and his father remodeled the restaurantâs interior. Impressive! There will likely be many Bachelor ladies who like a take charge guy who knows how to get things done.
Itâs also interesting to note that the restaurantâs menu has some California inspiration, thanks to Coltonâs time spent in Oakland playing for the Raiders. Perhaps a key to his heart is some West Coast cooking? Maybe heâll like a lady with Cali ties?
Itâs all just speculation for now, but one thing is for sure: this fun fact is making us hungry for new episodes of The Bachelor!
