whoopazz Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 (edited) Well, we now all know that Wieg proposed on a bridge in Venice (snob ), so where did everyone else propose? Mine is pretty boring, under the Christmas tree after everyone had gone to bed Any cool or unique stories out there?

untateve Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 It was in my apt, about 7am. She had been asleep. She woke up and saw a knight in armor standing above her. Seriously. She was a little surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Holy Roller Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 I passed her a note during Early Church History while we were students at Emporia, Kansas. She said yes because I can lick my eyebrows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 It was technically during some July 3rd fireworks at a small Milwaukee festival known as Summerfest. But since George Thorogood came out and played about 30 minutes later, I say it was at a George Thorogood show because that sounds way classier.

KICK A$$ BLASTER Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I got engaged during a TV timeout during a Duke basketball game on March 16, 2001. I wasn't going ask her that night but it just kind of happened.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peepinmofo Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 This past new years.... Right at the turn of midnight, at a Sevendust show here in Tampa, they all took a break for everyone to do the happy new year thing, so I had someone distract her, then I got on one knee and asked her. She was completely surprised... So yeah, at a rock concert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampnuts Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 At home sitting on the couch. This was after another big drawn out fight about what a non-commital pos I was. It wasn't romantic or memorable, and I wish I'd done it differently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheikYerbuti Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 In her parents living room: Mom: If you want us to help with the down payment on the house, you two better be married. Us: Uh, OK. . . Don't get more romantic than that!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Vatican Hitsquad Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 You proposed in a cesspool? I considered leaving the state to propose... but i was mired down in the filth and i couldn't get out. So we just stopped at a seaside location where the breeze blowing off the water would hide the stench of CT long enough to make a beautiful moment in our lives before we were returned to the ongoing aroma of low tide that exists in all coastal CT. How's that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, I bet if you surprised your wife one night and "proposed" to her the way that you wish you had proposed, you will be writing yourself a blank check for nookie on demand for months if not years to come.

Bill Swerski Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 In our bathroom. I had something romantic planned, but scrapped it on a whim. The wife was in the shower and I knocked on the door and said that I need to get something in there. I left the ring in the open box on the sink counter and stick a Post-It note reading "Will you marry me?" on the box. I then stood outside, waiting for the scream. Not terribly romantic, but I thought that the shock factor would make for a good story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdrudge Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 December 18th, 1999 under this sign in my hometown. There was a slight flurry that night. I forgot where we went to dinner, but it was good. I was suppose to have a carriage ride, but I believe they were all booked that night. Got down on one knee and presented her a ring from the quarter machine from the local Wal-Mart. I had a real one in my pocket, but it was an inside joke as some previous friends we had a falling out with purchased their actual rings at a Wal-Mart for like $10. Seriously.
