Rob Banks

Hey, my name is Rob Banks, born and raised in Lancaster, NY. I originally went to school to become a doctor at UB....and that dream got completely derailed when I stumbled into radio after my short-lived lacrosse career in college. My wife and I still live in Lancaster and are no stranger to all the local watering holes (Go Legends). There is not a Concert or Sporting event tailgate we haven't liked. When not on the air, there's no doubt I'll be doing one of the following: playing the guitar, fishing, playing games (massive euchre guy), and travelling.
