On the forbidden website, Gabrielle Starr on the Boston herald said her answer was “I don’t know”
Man, if you’re going to do that, you better be damn sure that she’s cool with it and what the answer’s going to be.
My wife would have left me on the spot if I’d done this, but I’m at least self-aware enough to have known that all along.
Edit: That said, there’s something about how long the camera lingers on this that makes me wonder if it was a bit.
The only person able to pull off a public proposal was Randy Savage
Yeah guys (and gals for that matter although I personally have only seen guys do this) do not fucking do this unless you are A) absolutely certain the answer will be yes B) that the person you’re proposing to loves the sport and stadium as much as you do and C) and this might actually be the most important one, that even if the answer to the first two is yes, that they’ll want the attention from this grand romantic gesture. If the answer to the first two is yes but the third one is no or you aren’t sure, absolutely propose at the game in your favorite seats (and if you guys don’t have favorite seats the answer to B is almost certainly not yes), but don’t do it on the big board. If they say yes and wish you’d made the grand romantic gesture that’s why a friend of mine who did this (and the response was yes) had someone sneak a « she said yes » sign in with an engagement ring drawn on it in so that he could have him present the sign when she asked why he didn’t go the big board route, meaning they got on tv without putting her on the spot on the big board like that.
Hey guys, just to be clear: you get the real yes by asking about it without asking it. The proposal thereafter is the affirmative gesture and special moment.
Probably the 2nd or 3rd time my then girlfriend, now fiancee and I went to a Sox game at Fenway a couple got engaged a few rows away from us.
We’re standing up and clapping and as my fiancee is wiping away a tear she leans over and goes “aww that’s so cute. Also don’t you fucking dare ever propose to me at a sports game”.
This is like.. months not years into us being together lol.
Moral of the story: a proposal should be a rhetorical question by the time you ask.
Years ago I worked at YETI coolers and someone wrote in asking for a miniature YETI cooler to propose at a Braves game. I made it and sent it to the guy, only asking for the video footage in return, but we never heard back from him. My theory is she said no. Maybe she wasn’t a fan of coolers?

That might be the most uncomfortable kiss I’ve ever seen
I give it six months.
Serah linn.
It’s like a name they would make up and rif on in Ted.
Secondhand embarrassment is strong with this one
100 percent not a real proposal. Stadiums do this all time for funsies.
« Serah » should have given it away, even if you look past all the other red flags.
I (girl) am one of the biggest baseball fans I know in my own social circle
If I were proposed to on the videoboard between innings of a Sox game (nevermind any other team), that would be the END of it. I love baseball but absolutely the fuck *not.*
There might be ways to integrate baseball *into* a proposal, or ways outside a game to get it in, but sandwiching a lifelong commitment in between hot dog races and an ad for the 50/50? Where I’m socially pressured to say yes to a crowd of thousands (at least it’s not hundreds anymore). Are you kidding me?
This is some curb your enthusiasm type awkwardness, almost hard to watch
I still remember going to a game in like 2007 where there was a big screen proposal that ended with the woman yelling at the guy and throwing popcorn in his face before running off.
The best part was hearing the announcer afterward. « Well, uh- LEADING OFF FOR THE ASTROS- »
The guy in this video clip may have gotten off easy.
“Do I know you?”
