Tennis Babe Genie Bouchard Honors Super Bowl Bet, Goes On Date With Mizzou Student
8 years ago

And the Luckiest Bastard of the Year Award goes to … John Goehrke from the University of Missouri.

With a 25-point lead in the Super Bowl, the Atlanta Falcons looked poised to take home the title and tennis babe Genie Bouchard was confident in it. That’s when Mizzou student John Goehrke tossed up a Hail Mary, asking Bouchard for a date if the Patriots mounted the largest comeback in Super Bowl history. I don’t really need to tell you what happened after that.

Clear, physical evidence that shooters gotta shoot.

The story went viral over whether or not Bouchard would actually go on a date with this dude. You’re not supposed to meet strangers on the internet, I’m told. Then, last night, it happened.

Wrong link. Be still, my heart.

Is it just me or does she give off a MAJOR Taylor Swift vibe?

Sure, the “normal” guy comment might’ve cut him deep. Odds are he’s currently stuck in the friend zone. But that’s not a death sentence here. She seemed incredibly relieved he turned out to be normal, and they seemed to have a genuinely good time. You’ve played your cards right so far, John, and she’s reportedly agreed to a second date. Remember: game of inches.

You’re an inspiration to all the young shooters out there, John. A success story in the making. Thank you.

And John, if you’re reading this, hit me up on Twitter. I want the dirty deets.
