Summer Of Love, RevisitedSix couples who found romance through AMC By Dana Filek-Gibson AMC Outdoors, February 2010 Some pretty outrageous ads have appeared in the Trader section of AMC Outdoors. One reads, "Seeking an educated Romeo, 67+, who can still drive, walk, talk"; in another is the even less romantic "If you think this is a dumb way to meet, we've got something in common." And one pitch begins with the enticing self-description "weird, depressed, boring." Such personal ads have appeared in AMC's magazine over the years, helping outdoorsy singles meet and, sometimes, form lasting relationships; now and then AMC librarian Becky Fullerton fields requests from couples looking for the ads that brought them together, to use in anniversary cards or just to have as keepsakes. Classified ads are just one of the many ways AMC has brought people together, however. The stories of several couples with AMC roots were published in "Love on the Rocks," a feature story in the June 2003 issue of AMC Outdoors. Because there's no shortage of such stories, here is a sequel describing six more AMC romances.
