If that last sentence was supposed to be a question, I’d suggest using a question mark and providing evidence that it actually happened.

I had actually forgot about this completely and am also curious if anything ever came of it.

Your ask for evidence has nothing to do with whether or not this is a question, which you know that it is.

It does nothing to answer their question because anyone that knows the answer would inherently already know that it happened.

Not even actual academics, in the literature, speak like this. “Cite your sources!” in causal conversation for something easily verifiable is purely the domain of pseudointellectuals.
