STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:
Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. Who needs a dating app like Tinder? Robert Siegfried put his picture and phone number on a highway billboard, which labels him Wisconsin's No. 1 eligible bachelor. As seen on local TV, he's got a cowboy hat and also sunglasses, which help keep down the glare of his belt buckle. The sign in Janesville asks local honest women to call or text. Callers get a voicemail saying he loves laughter. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.
