Knoxville Hot Dog Eating Contest 2020 Kidding...The pandemic brought a lot of hard times, but also some joy as well. Katelyn and Thomas met online on a dating app called Bumble in September 2020. When the two became a "match", the sparks and conversation fired off. After a day or two of texting, Thomas didn't hear back from Katelyn and was worried she might had lost interest. In fear that he would lose the girl of dreams, he fired off this message - "Slowly unbuttons shirt to get your attention..." She responded almost immediately with laughter and they had their first date that week at Bearden Beer Market. The rest is history.
As much as we'd love to invite everyone (including kids), we prefer for this celebration to be adults only.
