When the weather's nice on your typical Friday or Saturday night in the spring and early fall, "The Penn State Boombox Guy" can be seen with a girl on each arm, strutting his swag downtown blasting 80s and 90s rock, rap, and dance hits from the boombox he props on his shoulder.

The answer (obviously) was "What is State College?"
