I was invited to Valve's Game Developers Conference after party. I met Felicia Day and swing danced with her. She's super fucking cool. During that same GDC, I started interviewing at Riot Games and ended up getting hired by them.

There's other fun stuff I've proactively done, but I think that's the big one that happened to me

Thank you! I was really tempted to try to put moves on her, but I was in a relationship at the time. When I got home and told the story, my girlfriend at the time said she totally would have given me a pass. I have regrets. Of course, I probably would have failed anyway, but it's fun to think about.
