Andrew and Rebecca quickly discovered that they both enjoyed watching basketball. They bonded over their love for “the Admiral” (David Robinson) who, to Rebecca, was the extremely tall very smiley father of a bench player at Duke who frequently went to games (with whom she once got a selfie!). To Andrew, he was the center (get it?) of his early San Antonio Spurs basketball fandom.

For their second date, Andrew and Rebecca agreed to watch back-to-back Duke / Spurs games on a Friday evening in the happening part of DC where Andrew lived. Before Rebecca left home, she got a message from Andrew: “Call me when you get here. I saved you a parking spot on the street in front of my building”.

Rebecca was both deeply touched and horrified at the same time: "that’s so thoughtful! Nobody’s ever saved me a parking spot! But I have to CALL HIM on the PHONE!?"

The excellent parking spot earned Andrew copious points and Rebecca showed up with ingredients to make her sister's famous jalapeño margaritas, which impressed Andrew.
