Matt and Brittany first met at the Greene County 4-H fair in junior high. They both showed pigs and their pens were actually across from each other. Matt states he first saw Brittany when he was getting thrown into the cow trough by the older boys, and Brittany first remembers seeing Matt while he looked at his pigs sullenly while waiting his turn to show his pigs. They wouldn't really see each other again until they were both 21. Matt ended up in Brittany's apartment one night through mutual friends to go see a Rod Tuff Curls and Bench Press show in Bloomington. People would introduce them to each other, but they both stated they already knew each other from 4-H. A few months later, they would run into each other again after Christmas while they were both home from college at the old faithful, Aggie's Bar. They eventually teamed up and ruled the pool table for several rounds. By that, they mean, Matt ran the pool table while Brittany talked trash to the opponents. At this point, it is believed Brittany put her phone number into Matt's phone since he would be headed to Purdue University the next day. One week later, they had their first date at a Father John Misty show in Bloomington, and the rest is history.
