Street: What is the breakfast of champions? Reg Tigerman: Breakfast is for losers. I eat brunch.
Street: Do you think more people love Mask & Wig or hate it? RT: I feel like we're analogous to a Take 5 candy bar. We're a lot to handle, and some might be turned off by the nuts, but once you take a bite, you're gonna wannna come back for more.
Street: Are you a Mask or are you a Wig? RT: I'm actually an ampersand.
Street: Should all men dress up in drag at least once in their life? RT: All girls respect a guy who has the courage to wear a bra and a dress. At least that's what I tell myself when I'm waxing my bikini line.
Street: What's your life going to be like post-Penn? RT: I'm going to become a B-rated actor then come back to Penn as a professor in the Asian American Studies Department.
Street: Is Reg short for something? RT: No, it's not short for anything. It's actually long for Re.
Street: How do you get your hair so big? RT: I'd like to thank my parents for that. My mom is Jewish and my dad was a Chia Pet.
Street: When did you begin to grow the fro? RT: I've always had the fro. I feel like each and every one of us has a little fro inside. For some it might be a hobby or a family memento, and for others a mound of curly locks that repels water and removes grime from any surface. I feel lucky to have the latter.
Street: Can we touch it? RT: A girl in Las Vegas once asked me that, and I used a pick up line that I found in a "how to pick up women" book. I told her "You've gotta pay to touch the merchandise," and she walked away disgusted. So yes, you can touch it.
Street: How do you perform the same show so many times without dying of boredom? RT: Some people would say alcohol, but I do it by not performing the same show every time. I try and add small things here and there to keep myself and the rest of the group on their toes.
Street: And how do you think of new things to add? RT: Alcohol.
Street: How do you feel about this being the last weekend of the Mask & Wig show? RT: I'm going to miss it. You better not.
Street: What is the best cure for a hangover? RT: If I had an answer to that, I'd be in class right now.
