He can be more reclusive and may need someone asking him if he'd like to come out of his room to hang out. He also likes going out to events and shows, musicales. One is very big on all sports. He loves the Yankees and Buffalo Bills. He watches every game that is available to watch on tv. When there isn't one available, he'll find another team or sport to watch. He also loves to go out and about for pretty much anything at any time, and especially loves going out to buy a drink (usually a Coke) And the last one takes a little longer to warm up, but loves movies, tv shows, and video games. He may just want you to sit with him while he plays the video game, or join in and participate. He's also a football fan, but will enjoy going out to most sporting events.
