On Halloween night in 2015, at Jonny Mac's in Asbury Park, NJ, Tanya and Mike's paths crossed in an unforgettable way. Tanya, dressed as Freddy Krueger, playfully swiped at Mike's pen with her Freddy blade hand as he was signing his receipt. Caught off guard, Mike exclaimed, "I wasn't expecting that," coincidentally the title of the song Tanya had heard while getting ready for their first official date. Curious, Tanya asked if he was dressed as Ron Burgundy, to which Mike responded with a matter-of-fact tone, "Are you an idiot?" Little did they know, this playful encounter would mark the beginning of a unique and spirited connection between two souls destined for a memorable journey together.
