On May 27, 2011 Max and Jenna met for the first time at a bar beneath Jenna's new St. Louis apartment. After four hours of outstanding conversation, they were off to another bar to meet Max's friends. Things were escalating quickly. The first traveling of the courtship took place a mere two months later. This may or may not surprise you, but it was up to Chicago to see Jimmy Buffett in concert. It was clear these two souls had some seriously good things in common. Max immediately began his work to make Jenna a lifetime St. Louis Cardinals fan, and Jenna similarly was planting the "Roll Tide" gene deep into Max's heart. Both very necessary and successful ventures.
