SACRAMENTO, Calif. — His favorite song is “Hot for Teacher.” His go-to selection on karaoke nights happens to be “Panama .”
And whenever steeplechaser Aric Van Halen tells someone his name, he waits for the inevitable question: Are you related to THE Van Halens?
Why, yes he is.
His father is drummer Alex Van Halen, the co-founder of the Hall of Fame band. Aric happened to find his rhythm on the track and certainly brings a rock star look with a sleeve of tattoos on his left arm.
