Sam and Tyler met while both playing hockey in Breezy Point. Tyler was working the penalty box during a hockey game and Sam had unknowingly been using his charger for her phone. Later in the game, Sam had a basket of tater tots and in return for using his charger, Tyler had asked for some. Sam walked away, and her friend Brittany said, "That guy asked you for a tater tot and you completely ignored him". Feeling bad, Sam had Brittany go back and bring Tyler a tater tot. After the game, Sam received a message from a hockey player named Tyler and the rest is history.
