Genie Bouchard takes Super Bowl bet date to Nets game
Some might cringe at the idea of being taken to a Brooklyn Nets contest on a date, but John Goehrke, a 20-year-old Mizzou sophomore, is probably punching well above his weight at this point anyways.
Goehrke is the Twitter user who managed to score a date with Canadian tennis star Eugenie Bouchard as a result of the Atlanta Falcons' historic Super Bowl collapse. That date came Wednesday, and the Bucks-Nets game was on the itinerary.

Goehrke is doing well. Bouchard thinks he's "normal" despite his Twitter profile picture featuring a banner of Tiger Woods, so who knows. They actually don't look like a mismatch.
Tennis star @geniebouchard makes good on Super Bowl bet by flying a lucky fan to NYC for a date at @barclayscenter! https://t.co/EAMQx9orw0
