On June 2, 2018, Patrick helped his friend Tyler Kirby move into a new apartment. The apartment had a nice pool, so the next morning Patrick, Tyler and Nathan Mullen headed down to the pool with a 30 rack of Keystone to relax and contemplate the nature of things. That afternoon, Tyler invited some friends over, and soon Brayden Vogel showed up with his girlfriend Jordan, and her friend Becca. By chance, Patrick was wearing a hat from the Sports Lure in Buffalo. Having grown up in Buffalo, Becca inquired about the hat. After an hour of talking, Patrick asked Becca for her father’s phone number because he had something to ask him. Seriously, that was the line he used. About 11 months later, Becca gave Patrick her father’s number and we were engaged exactly one year after meeting at the pool.
