Need Some Love? Try New Jersey’s Passion Puddle!❤️
Looking For Love? Look No Further Than This Jersey Hot Spot!
Do you believe in legend and lore? Do you think of yourself as superstitious? Do you need a place with a reputation for being a lucky spot for love? Then maybe look no further than this romantic spot in Middlesex County.
In a recent article from Patch, "A recent list by Travel + Leisure compiled the most romantic places in every state. Writers agreed Passion Puddle was worth a visit."
The Passion Puddle is a small lake that sits between to Rutgers University campuses. "While the spot isn't an actual puddle, the small pond between the Cook and Douglass campuses off Red Oak Lane in New Brunswick is a favorite location for young lovebirds, according to the university."
There is a story behind the legend of the Passion Puddle. Travel + Leisure said "According to Rutgers tradition, anyone who walks around the pond three times with their lover will marry them — so be sure that your pond-side strolling is done with the right person."
According to some at Rutgers University, it is a bit more specific if you are looking for love, "legend says if a male student from Cook College and a Douglass College woman held hands and walked around the pond, they would be married and live happily ever after."
So, I have to ask: Is there anyone reading this who can confirm the legend of the "passion puddle"? Did you walk around the pond and find love? Post your experience below and let us know.
