(WBBM NEWSRADIO) — A bachelor in Janesville, Wis., is looking for love—and he’s taken his search to a new level.

Robert Siegfried said he’s done the dating apps, with no luck, so, the 43-year-old turned to a large, electronic billboard on Milton Avenue in Janesville to find the love of his life. He spoke with Channel-3 television in Janesville.

“I’d like to walk down the sidewalk on a nice, summer day and just hold someone’s hand,” he told the news station.

The billboard instructed women to call a number.

“You’d be surprised on how many pictures I’m getting,” Siegfried said. “It’s crazy. It’s just like: Next, next, next, next, next.”

No match yet, but Siegfried said he’ll keep at it, with the sign showing up at even more locations in Janesville in the coming days.
