Thanks Spencer for the description. I took a look at the HAR you linked in your SO question and it looks like fonts.gstatic.com is in an HTTP response "Link" header value and content (i.e. CSS file).

I did a bit of researching and the Link property doesn't actually fetch the source[1]. In the HTTP response content[2], the browser is iterating through the @font-face src values and tries to use the first possible one (e.g. in this case, if you have the font locally, it won't try to load via url). For more info: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/@font-face/src

If there's another issue, please feel free to re-open this, otherwise it looks like this isn't a bug.

    font-family: 'Pathway Gothic One';
    font-style: normal;
