She told him she already had a boyfriend, but since he didn’t believe her, he continued to pursue her.

“A determined and chatty sort, he knew he was making progress when her one word answers became two. He eventually walked her to her car and offered tickets for her and her alleged boyfriend to come see the Nuggets, where Brown was working as a video coordinator. She accepted and then offered him a ride to his car. But he was so embarrassed by the beat-up old pickup truck he was driving that he declined. He probably floated back there anyway.”
