Austin Firefighter is En Fuego!

An Austin fireman made it onto People magazine's annual Hottest Bachelors list this year, alongside celebs such as Matthew McConaughey (spotted at Friday's Round Rock Express game acting "quite the tool"), Owen Wilson and that dude who won this season's American Idol.

36-year old Reggie Tait, according to his MySpace profile, enjoys "sports, working out, playing hoops, house parties, theatre, roadtrips, live r&b/top 40/smooth jazz music, and hanging with good friends." The Austinite relocated here from Oakland, California, and remarks that while it's a "whole helluva of a lot hotter down here," our quality of life is "10 times better."

"I'm going to stay humble through the whole process because I'm just a person, just like the other 49 bachelors in that issue too, so I was just fortunate enough to be selected this year," Tait told KXAN late last week.

Congrats on the recognition, Reggie!
