The Ross and Burbank Show is getting a little romantic this Valentine’s Day as hosts Dave Ross and Luke Burbank share the stories of their first kisses.

Luke Burbank tells story of his first kiss:

I was at Sno-King ice arena. It was Christian ice skating night. I was sitting there. I was in eighth grade and on one side of me was my girlfriend at the time, and on the other side of me, we’re sitting on this bench, were my two lame brain friends who were going, ‘Kiss her. Kiss her.’ And it must have been the Amy Grant music that got to me, because I finally got up the nerve and I leaned over and I kissed this girl.

I thought that my head was going to detach from my body and just float off. I was so overwhelmed by the experience.

We’re talking about the quickest of pecks here.

And I looked at her and I said, ‘That was my first kiss.’ And she basically started laughing. She couldn’t believe how quaint that was, because she had apparently kissed a lot of people, including it would turn out my lame brain friend who was sitting next to me.

Dave Ross tells story of his first kiss:

It happened in the back of my parent’s car, with them driving.

She had recently, during a school assembly, reached over and touched my hand in the next seat, so I knew we were an item.

I noticed her nose was brushing against my cheek, and it doesn’t seem that we’re in a tight turn or anything. So I’m thinking, ‘is there any reason I could explain this by the motion of the car.’ And as soon as I was certain it was intentional, I turned to meet her and the lips were right there, and it just happened.

I don’t know to this day whether my parents had any idea what was going on in the back seat.
