- Long before professionally writing about "The Bachelor" franchise, and before spoilers were readily available, Stacy won her office pool on pinning down the winner of Andrew Firestone's final rose recipient in season 3.
- Shortly after Bob Guiney was named "The Bachelor," Stacy ran into him at an appearance in San Francisco, while she was there on a business trip. She still has the photo she had taken with him somewhere.
