Danica Patrick: Aaron Rodgers landed date with ‘Dumb & Dumber’ references

The latest nugget revealed about their relationship came courtesy of Patrick, who revealed during a Q&A session following a motivational speech on Wednesday in North Dakota how the Green Bay Packers quarterback convinced her to take a chance on him.

And Rodgers’ ace in the hole? “Dumb & Dumber” references, of course.

“He was at the bar, puttin’ out the vibe — ‘Dumb and Dumber,’ you know?” Danica says, via TMZ Sports.

“And, I remember he was doing movie lines! And, people that love movie lines, LOVE movie lines. So, I think we had a dialogue in movie lines, and I was like, ‘This guy is really funny!'”

So, if we are to believe Patrick on how Rodgers was able to woo her into a date, it all started with him pulling off this kind of look…

… absent Lloyd Christmas’ outrageously orange tuxedo, of course.

Then, a few lines from the classic comedy and bingo bango, a date was secured. Talk about romance. Although it cannot be understated just how lucky Rodgers must count himself to find a soulmate who finds such silly humor hilarious.

What’s more impressive is Rodgers’ “Dumber & Dumber” seduction technique occurred at the ESPYs all the way back in 2012, where the two first met. Only half a decade later, Rodgers and Patrick began their courtship. Perhaps Patrick told Rodgers at the time it was a million-to-one shot the two would ever date, and Rodgers took it that she was telling him there was a chance.
