Jim Carey and Jeff Daniels apparently helped bring Aaron Rodgers and Danica Patrick together.

While speaking at an event in North Dakota on Wednesday, Patrick revealed that the Green Bay Packers quarterback used lines from the 1994 film "Dumb and Dumber" to woo her at the ESPY Awards in 2012.

"He was at the bar, puttin' out the vibe - 'Dumb and Dumber,' you know?" the retired NASCAR driver said, according to TMZ Sports. "And, I remember he was doing movie lines. And, people that love movie lines, love movie lines. So, I think we had a dialogue in movie lines, and I was like, 'This guy is really funny.'"

The couple confirmed their relationship in January.
