He's been all over America, and now, Pat Green is back home. But calling Texas home for Green might be a bit of an understatement; he was born in San Antonio, raised in Waco, attended college at Texas Tech University in Lubbock and lived in Austin. Now, Green is right in our own backyard - Fort Worth, where he's lived for the past two years.

Fort Worth played a significant role in Green's life even before he became a resident.

The Aardvark, a favorite bar among TCU students, is just one of the places Green has played at in the past.
