It was January 1, 2022—New Year's Day. While most people were recovering from the night before, Taylor and her friends were keeping the party going with a bar crawl. Meanwhile, Mike was enjoying a casual day out with his friends at Field House, a bar in Lincoln Park. Little did the two know, fate was about to make a entrance. Taylor's group wandered into Field House, and the moment she walked through the door, she and Mike made instant eye contact. It was just a brief spark, and the moment passed, but the universe wasn't done yet. Taylor’s group happened to settle at the table right next to Mike’s crew. For a few hours, they existed separately, until the natural gravitational pulled the two adjacent - soon, the separate tables started chatting. When Taylor walked up to the bar to grab the next round, Mike didn't hesitate. He followed her, starting a conversation that changed everything. They shared shot of rumble Minze together and spent the rest of the night talking, laughing, and realizing something that just maybe truly special had just begun. A few weeks later, they had their first date at Old Town Pour House. The rest is history!
