Personal Life
Mauer used to share a house with friend and Twins teammate Justin Morneau in St. Paul during the 2006 season. Mauer and Morneau no longer live together, as Morneau has married.
Mauer is also recognized for the large sideburns that he has worn ever since joining the big leagues. On August 10, 2006, the Minnesota Twins held "Joe Mauer Sideburns Night" in honor of the catcher. The first 10,000 fans were given synthetic replica sideburns with double-sided tape to share in Mauer's trademark look.
On December 11, 2011, Mauer announced his engagement to Maddie Bisanz, his girlfriend of about 18 months. Bisanz is also a graduate of Cretin-Derham Hall Raiders. They will reportedly be married on December 1, 2012, in St. Paul, MN.
