"Kiss Me" fiasco-she said NO!

Let's forget Blazergate for a moment. I want tell you what happened at the Blazer game last night. I think all guys who want to plan a special public marriage proposal should listen up.

At basketball games they do a thing called "kiss me". They put the camera on two people and show them up on the big screen. There they are framed in a heart with the words "kiss me" flashing as the song "Kiss Me" plays. Most times it is all in fun and as you can see below in the Blazer/Hornet game post, most people are good sports about it. In the picture you see the Blazer courtside announcers Wheels and Rice having fun with it. Sometimes, the words "kiss me" are replaced with "will you marry me?". This was the case last night. Usually the gal is surprised and she says yes and everyone says a collective "awwwwwwwwwwe"as the song "Kiss me" is replaced with the wedding music.

However, last night, the gal was not only surprised, she was mad. She dumped her tub of popcorn all over her stunned boyfriend. She grabbed the flowers he had and flinged those at him too. She got up and ran up the stairs and out of view, he quickly went after her. Meanwhile Blaze the mascot was left picking up flowers and passing what was left of them to people nearby. The crowd hushed and a lot of mumbling and "ut oh's" permeated the building.

Word to the wise. If you are going to propose in a public place like a sporting event, you had better be darn sure it is going to be OK or you too may find yourself in the same position that poor guy did last night. I'd love to hear how it eventually turned out.
