We met at a summer sevens rugby tournament in Birmingham, AL. We had both been playing on the Battleship Rugby team, but hadn’t yet crossed paths until Bubba, like the wild Alabama man he is, broke his hand . He came up and asked if I was a medic, so I dutifly splinted his hand with a beer box …. which he removed shortly after. A couple months later, he asked me on a date. He cooked fresh red fish from Dog River and has been cooking for me ever since!
