The man who's now Kal Penn's fiancé might not have gotten another chance after a lackluster second date, the "Harold and Kumar" actor revealed in a not-yet-published interview, Entertainment Tonight reported. Luckily, things progressed to a "really great conversation," but at first it wasn't looking hopeful. "Our second date was supposed to be just to come over for Sunday afternoon," Penn told Newsy Tonight. "He rolls up with an 18-pack of Coors Light. And I had 'Spongebob Squarepants' on the TV because I'm a romantic." But Spongebob quickly exited the scene: "He changes the channel, puts on the NASCAR race and then puts the rest of the beers in the fridge. "And I was like, 'Did this just happen unironically?'," Penn recalled. "This guy from Mississippi rolls into my apartment and touches my TV and puts on NASCAR." "So I immediately was like, 'This obviously isn't going to work out. He brought 18 beers, there are going to be 16 left that he can take with him'," Penn said. That was 11 years ago, and things have changed a bit since then. For one thing, the two got engaged two years ago; for another, Penn publicly came out of the closet recently while doing a promotional appearance on CBS Sunday Morning for his memoir, titled "You Can't Be Serious."
