Macaroni Grill that
two met on the bench while waiting for their tables. Their first date came soon after that; and in the months that followed, Bob and Lori formed a deep connection. When they returned to Macaroni Grill, Bob proposed to Lori on their bench. |

Every year since, Bob and Lori have made a tradition of returning to Macaroni Grill in celebration of |
| their first date and anniversary, where they, of course, sit on their bench. On one recent anniversary, Bob wanted
to do something special to express his love for Lori. So he wrote a heartfelt letter to Macaroni Grill Manager
Dustin Riddle asking about the possibility of purchasing the bench as a gift to his wife. Dustin went beyond
the request and gave Bob the bench along with an engraved plaque. |
|
In a letter, Bob expressed his deep appreciation to Dustin and the team, adding that he and Lori |
| “have told our story to everyone who will listen.” While the couple still enjoys their favorite meals at |
| Macaroni Grill, they are happy to have their bench all to themselves. |
