Kyle's B&B Person of the Year for 2024 - Coach Dennis Carver !!! 👑

 

The votes are in, and it is official! Coach Dennis has won the crown in a landslide victory! 👑

This is Coach's first win, (it's actually his first-ever appearance on the ballot. Even though he was

involved in some storylines last year, he had only just begun dating Kyle, and was not around as much). 

Something of significance about Coach's win is that this marks the first time a non-resident of the

B&B has won the crown, (some may argue that he spends a lot of nights at the B&B with Kyle, but,

he does not officially reside at the B&B, so, this is significant!). In fact, it was only a few years ago

 that non-residents were allowed to compete in the contest, (so that we could finally allow Breyer and

Nick to be included on the ballot). 

Last year's crown-winner, Levi, featured in some major storylines in the year of his win, (he also did

this year, too). As has been noted here, that's not always the case with other crown-winners. In fact, 

Mannis and Drew have both won in years where they barely had walk-ons throughout the year.

Coach falls somewhere in between. He had a moderate presence in storylines this year, more in a

series of "one-shot" appearances, as opposed to an ongoing storyline. 

He started off the year with a bang, (somewhat literally!), as he and Kyle had their first overnight

together. Several episodes later, he and Brad butted heads while discussing Coach's off-season job

at House Depot, (which ultimately led to the two having a bit of a rapprochement). Coach had another

one-shot appearance over a late-night chat with Sergei, (which led to the 2 former professional jocks

establishing an unexpected friendship). As summer rolled around, Coach and Kyle had a lovely walk

on the beach at Fire Island, (which led to a memorable moment with the 2 stripping down to go

swimming au naturel!). Finally, we saw Coach again in December, when he and Kyle had a rather

frank but illuminating discussion about age differences as they decorated the B&B for the Holidays!

Here are a few highlight panels from Coach's life in 2024:

In looking at the numbers for the year, Coach really hammered the competition, garnering 27% of the

vote. His closest competition was last year's winner Levi, who came in at a distant 2nd place with 14.9% of

the vote. Jason Forest, (another non-resident), had a strong showing, coming in at #3 with 12.9% of

the vote. Certainly one of the biggest comment-getters at the B&B, Jason had a number of brash appear-

ances throughout the year, (which included a memorable hook-up with Price!). And speaking of Price...

he also placed strongly, grabbing the #4 position. Love him or hate him... he does make an impression!

Rounding out the upper numbers, Kyle and Drew came in at #5 and #6. After that, the numbers really

start to drop off. Probably the biggest drop-off was former three-time crown winner Mannis, who came

in 15th place with only 4 votes! (To be fair, Mannis had barely any appearances in the comic strip this

year). 

Our special sad trombone award 📯 goes to our last place winner, Nick, who got exactly ZERO votes!

(The only candidate on the ballot who got no votes!). But perhaps it's fitting, as he had 0 appearances

in the strip this year, (we'll have to see about changing that for 2025!). 

Below are the final numbers for everyone. And if you'd like to see the "Hall of Fame" of previous

 winners of the crown, you can click here to visit the Kyle's B&B Person of the Year Hall of Fame!!!

As I always say... if your favorite guy or gal didn't win... start campaigning now for them! There's

always next year!!!  👑 I'm wishing you a very Happy New Year, and looking forward to bringing

you more adventures of the B&B crew in 2025! Thank you for being a part of it!!!

And please don't forget to VOTE for the Kyle's B&B Person of the Year! (Just scroll down to the post below the new episode to cast your vote!!!).  

VOTE NOW for the Kyle's B&B PERSON of the YEAR for 2024 !!! 👑

 It's that time of the year again! (Just scroll down a bit for the poll and the instructions!). 

Who do you think was the star-player in the storylines of the B&B this year? Keep

in mind, this shouldn't necessarily be about voting for your favorite character, (although

 you can, if you want to). Ideally, this poll should be about voting for the character who

 really had a groundbreaking year in the B&B stories. 

Some big moments of the past year, for your consideration:

Darren had some gripping scenes, as the secret from his past that had been troubling him

was finally revealed, and he worked through it with the help of Drew.

Levi & Jeremy had a rollercoaster year, as they took a few stumbles but eventually were

able to connect as a couple.

Speaking of couples, Kyle and Coach Dennis really seemed to click this year, and the

Coach had some especially memorable moments... including some late night confessions

to Sergei, and an unforgettable moment when he stripped down to his socks on the beach!

Price and Jason Forest rocked the rafters of the B&B, (literally!), with their unexpected

hookup. Which set the stage for Lance to come roaring back into the spotlight towards

the end of this year.

Other things to consider: Delia finally moved into the B&B, Richard was pulling some

strings behind the scenes for Levi & Jeremy, and Drew played a key role in several story-

lines, including a memorable moment at the swimming pool in his red speedo! And let's

not forget Sergei's sweet moment when he counselled Coach while getting his cookies!

Voting ends on Monday, December 30th at  6:00 pm EST. Winner will be announced

 and the crowning ceremony 👑 will commence later on that evening. You can only vote

 once, so think carefully about your vote! (As always, in the unlikely event of a tie, or

if the poll is somehow compromised, the winner will be determined in a separate poll on the 

Kyle's B&B Patreon supporters page). 

TO CAST YOUR VOTE, scroll down and you'll see the poll options. Pick your person and vote! 

(Please note.... if you don't see your vote tallied after you place your vote, don't worry....

 you just need to refresh your browser's page after your vote has been placed to see it reflected

 in the totals). In years past, for some viewers the poll did not show up on their screen. It seems

 to not show up on some mobile  devices. If you can get to a desktop or laptop, that may work 

for you. Also, you can go to the following link to cast your vote directly:

And if none of that works, you can e-mail me your vote privately

 and I will add it to the totals). Email me at
