Webster Guy Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 Halftime, Notre Dame/Ohio State bowl game: A soldier comes home from Iraq and asks his gf to marry him on live TV. She said "yes". Could you imagine if she said "no"? "Um Honey...I wanted to wait until you got home, but I am pregnant with your brother's child and we are getting married Saturday." There's a new reality show- Live Proposals.
Bear Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 I dont' think there is anything worse than these sporting event marriage proposals. How anyone can think that is romantic, I have no idea.
Alaska Darin Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 Thanks for sharing one of your most private moments with us, Lt Douchebag.
Just Jack Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 As someone who did a live proposal, lay off. People who know me were shocked that I would do it in front of several hundred people.
mcjeff215 Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 As someone who did a live proposal, lay off. People who know me were shocked that I would do it in front of several hundred people. 549380[/snapback] That's part of who you are, no? The fact that you did it that way was special to you and you're significant other. Live proposals are great if it's part of "you", if that makes sense. Putting them on TV and showcasing them to the country? Bit much for me and I don't intend to watch, but I'm sure it will be a big hit. Probably get a bunch of people that do it for their 15 minutes of fame rather than the surprise and the memory. Doing it that way? Great! -Jeff

People who know me were shocked that I would do it in front of several hundred people. 549380[/snapback] Shocked that you did it in front of several hundred people, or shocked that you did it in front of several hundred people?? For starters, several hundred is different than national TV. Second, it would depend on who those people are. I could never understand publicly proposing in front of a bunch of strangers. But, whatever floats yer boat.
Generation ME Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 I was hoping she would say " God no ! ", then turn and french Anne Heche.

X. Benedict Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 The Sanctity of Marriage ain't what it used to be... 549592[/snapback] You miss a 15yd pass for $500,000 and you get to marry a 2nd Looey. Some consolation prize. Kids did I ever tell you about the time your Pa took a knee at the Tostitoes Bowl.

JERRY JERRY! 549869[/snapback] there was the one basketball game where the girl said no annd ran off thr court after her boyfriend proposed at center court at halftime. worthless B word.
Puhonix Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 there was the one basketball game where the girl said no annd ran off thr court after her boyfriend proposed at center court at halftime. worthless B word. 550007[/snapback] There's video of that, someone's got to find it. The guy is in one of thoe inflatable suits, and so he starts to take it off, and the girl gets all shy, and when he drops to one knee, shows the ring, and mumbles something she runs off the court. sucks for him. If you're going to do that, you better damn well know the answer before you even consider it.
Puhonix Posted January 3, 2006 Posted January 3, 2006 At this weekend's Indiana Pacers-Washington Wizards game, a woman's reaction to a man's marriage proposal stuns an expectant crowd. The apparent proposal came at the end of a halftime contest on the Wizards home court Saturday night. The woman was blindfolded, sent out on the court, and told if she could find a local bank's mascot, she would win free Wizards tickets. As the crowd yelled "hot" and "cold," the woman roamed the court for about 10 seconds. Then, as she found and touched the bank mascot, she was told she won the contest. However, the public address announcer said there was a surprise. The man appeared from the bank mascot's costume, grabbed a microphone and then got down on one knee. As he began to speak to the woman, she paused and grabbed her face in shock. Then, as the crowd expected the man to pop question, the woman turned away from the man, and sprinted full speed across the basketball court. After running up a tunnel, she was stopped by a security guard. There was no indication on the broadcast whether the proposal was legitimate or not. But the stunt surprised the groaning crowd as a message saying, "She said No!" appeared on the arena's scoreboard. Slideshow
