It was the fall semester of 2008 at SUNY Fredonia. Take it to the 9:00am Constitutional Law class. Brad sits right behind Steph in class, thanks to the alphabet. Quiz one came around and Brad needed answers. He vowed back then to either take Steph on a date or ace the class. He got neither. (But Steph aced the class). 9 years later, around New Years of 2017. We find ourselves reconnected at the same party sipping some champagne, and the rest is history.

Brad (non)conspicuously planned a trip to Buffalo the night before the home opener for the 2019 Buffalo Bills season. Met up with Catie, Michelle, Ryan and Ricky. Stopped at one of our favorite bars, Union Pub, for some wings. After some food, we decided to walk down a "few blocks" to Pearl Street Brewery. After making a "wrong turn", we ended up by the river at Canalside. Stopped to snap a few pictures at sunset, and Brad got down on a knee. There is a 10 minute video of the whole ordeal floating around somewhere.
