The Buzz: Amani Walker

What is your craziest superstition?

I have rituals that I do before every game like I listen to reggae, lay out my clothes, put on my right sock or shoe before my left, or wait to put shin guards on until I get to the field. Little things like that.

What is on your iPod?

Well considering I have over 7000 songs on my iPod, there’s a lot, but mainly I listen to reggae and some hip-hop. Really any feel good type music.

Favorite leisure activity?

I like to play video games, especially FIFA, or just spending time on the computer or reading.

Who is the funniest person on your team?

Probably Diego Hernandez. Everything he says is hilarious.

What celebrity do people say you look like?

When my dreads were a bit shorter, I got Orlando Jones a lot.

Favorite opponent to play?

I would say Santa Barbara. We always get a good crowd and game with them.

Ten years from now I hope to be:

If not playing, then working with people in some way in either Latin America or Africa.
