Over the grade of vii seasons, viewers got to know the master characters quite well, and one that became a fan-favorite was Ron Swanson (Nick Offerman). The extremely deadpan and stereotypical masculine Ron was known for his dear for meat, whiskey, woodworking, having ii very problematic ex-wives, and for being the complete contrary to Leslie: while she loved working for the government and making a positive change, Ron couldn't intendance less, and even believed that the Parks Department shouldn't be.

However, their friendship was broken in season seven, when a misunderstanding between the 2 resulted in them non talking to each other anymore. As it turns out, this was fight was teased in season 2.
