Red loves to drink beer and consume food which is bad for his health, having suffered from a heart attack on one occasion. Red is also shown as a die-hard fan of the Green Bay Packers, even, in one episode, kicking out visiting new neighbors, Josh and Jeff who are a gay male couple, solely because they were Minnesota Vikings fans (he had no issue with their sexual orientation). He is also a fan of the Milwaukee Bucks and the Milwaukee Brewers. An exception appears to lie for his rooting interests in college football, however, where he appears to favor the Notre Dame Fighting Irish over the Wisconsin Badgers.
