Hey there!
I am
Brant Mathews,
aka, the FireGuy!
Some fun facts about me
A quick story on how I got into the show biz
I was thrilled and juggled my heart out. At the end of my gig, I handed a handwritten $250 invoice to Mark at the employee’s entrance and thanked him for the opportunity.
Although I was only hired for that one gig, I then had an idea: “What if I just showed up with another $250 invoice, asking to entertain again?”
When I entered the employee entrance with the invoice in hand, Mark was surprised, to say the least. He questioned why I was there and noted something about only being hired for that one event. Nevertheless, I wasn’t ready to give up yet. So, I told him, “Well, Mark, I had so much fun at the first game that I thought you might want me back again.”
Mark was so impressed by my bravery that he not only let me show up to every home game since then, but he also personally called me to perform at the halftime show. He said to me, “FireGuy, you’ve been a good team player all year. How would you like to perform at a halftime show… with fire this time?”
And that’s how I got my first-ever $1000 show!
What's the Takeaway?
You really can make what you want happen. Where you are right now almost doesn’t matter because you are becoming something greater. Therefore, whatever it is that you want, don’t be afraid to risk rejection. Additionally, persistence and courage are key to achieving your goals.

Therefore, winter events are the perfect stage for my fiery performances, bringing warmth and excitement to any cold day. Additionally, these performances highlight the unique contrast between fire and ice, making them even more memorable.
