What can we say about Ken Bone that hasn’t been said before? If you know, please tell us. But in the meantime, here’s a recap of what we’ve learned about the debate’s true hero over the past 28 hours, which, barring a Ken Bone sex scandal or something, will likely be the last time he’ll matter until a brand puts him in a commercial.
1. He was the drummer in a Christian rock band.
Bone’s former bandmate Joshua Burkett told Mashable that Bone played drums in their band, which performed mainly “Christian pop covers from the 90s and 00s. DC Talk and Newsboys kinda stuff.”
“He was a pretty good drummer back in the day,” he added. No surprise there. Also not surprising: Bone apparently boned a lot, or at least a lot more than his bandmates did.
We played pop Christian covers. We may have all been virgins, except Ken. He was the drummer. He had all the chicks.

Burkett repeated his claims about Bone’s womanizing ways on Facebook: “My ultimate claim to fame in life will be that I was once in a band with the legend Ken Bone and that we spent two summers cruising around our hometown picking up chicks — me failing and him succeeding.”
As if anyone ever doubted that would be the case.
2. Snoop Dogg wants to smoke weed with him.
So do we Snoop, so do we.

3. His family is ready for the fun to end.
From Bone’s recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter: “I think my son was having a really great time for about the first half-hour. He is 12 years old and having a dad on the internet was probably super cool, but the cool is starting to wear off. He had to go back to school today after a holiday yesterday, so I think he is pretty much ready for it to be over. I hope he hasn’t gotten too hard of a time from his friends today. And my wife has put as much work into this as I have, but she doesn’t get to do any of the fun stuff. She’s also probably ready to be done.”
4. Police have to patrol his neighborhood now.
Bone told The Hollywood Reporter that he’s “had one or two phone calls that were kind of alarming,” which prompted his local police department to increase the number of patrols in his neighborhood while his wife is home alone. Not that Bone is particularly worried.
“I don’t really put that much stock into it,” he said. “Negative people are going to be negative. The odds of him living in my area are remote. He’s just some guy who got my number from the internet.”
5. A porn company offered him $100,00 to star in something called The Bone Zone.
The New York Post reports adult entertainment site CamSoda offered Bone $100,000 to star in an live, hour-long program.
“While Donald and Hillary continued to bicker, we were especially distraught that your question didn’t receive the appropriate attention it deserved,”CamSoda president Daron Lundeen said. “The show can cater to your specificities but we were thinking you could take us all to the Bone Zone and tell/show us what you’re all about.”
6. We now know his middle name.
It’s Dean.
