Jill moved to Tyler, TX in July 2018. Two weeks after she got there, she went to meet a few friends of hers that were playing a show at a small venue in Lindale, TX. It just so happened that Kody was working at the venue that night. As she was running back and forth setting up the merch table and getting the guys food, Kody was setting up the patio. She noticed him almost immediately, and was completely thrown off every time he told her that her shoe was untied (she was wearing cowboy boots). She convinced him to buy a shirt during the show, which she still never lets him live down. After the show, Jill went bowling with her friends, and as they were leaving the bowling alley, Kody walked in. After a few snarky comments, the two parted ways. It turns out, Kody was under the impression Jill was with one of the guys in the band, and was therefore "off limits" per the rules of the venue. After that night, Jill returned to the venue almost weekly to enjoy the live music. Each time she was there, Kody would make an excuse to come talk to her, or vice versa. Although he likes to say she stalked him, he'll also on occasion admit that he pursued her as well. After a few weeks of sitting at the bar drinking ginger beers, he finally asked her out, and the rest is history.
