Scoreboard proposals: Love 'em or hate 'em?
Filed under: Engagement, Polls
Yesterday we told you how to get your marriage proposal on the big screen at a baseball game. Today we'll find out if you should. In an infamous episode of Friends, "The One Where Rachel's Sister Babysits," Phoebe ruins her boyfriend's big-screen proposal at a Knicks game when she comments to him that such proposals are tacky and impersonal. Oops.Scoreboard proposals are nothing innovative; you see them all the time. But is the fact that they're not creative a reason to hate them? Getting down on one knee has been done before -- does that mean you're going to do it differently?
The main thing to consider is whether the person you're proposing to would find a big screen proposal more romantic or more awful. Someone who is an introvert and doesn't like the spotlight might be terrified by such a gesture. Furthermore, if you're going to propose publicly, you want to be sure in advance that the answer is yes.
Would you appreciate a scoreboard proposal?
