..for those that don't know here's the story.



About the time the proposal was to happen, she started craving a cigerette. I needed to almost chain her seat. My heart was fluttering. I told her she needed to stay seated as this was the time in the game when the camera men pan the audience looking for the prettiest girls in the statium and put their images on the large screen out in center field.

She said, "But honey I don't want to be on the big screen"

I said, "Well it's only for a brief moment it's no big deal sweetie"

Suddenly our images were there with my proposal flashing in LARGE CAPITAL LETTERS
Yes, LARGE CAPITAL LETTERS.

I said, "Honey LOOK!"

Her jaw dropped, I asked her to stand up. She was a bit in shock, but complied.
I slid down unto one knee. I pulled the small black velvet case from my jean pocket.
For an eternity she just stared at me. The planets semed to have froze during those moments.
And where was the my essentail Coldplay music when I needed it!

Finally the words of Chris Martin came through..
"Look at the stars, look how they shine for you.."

She finally composed herself and said, "Of course I will marry you darling"..

We danced for 30 seconds to Coldplay with the statium cheering us on.
I gave a 'thumbs up' and a "A-O.K." sign as the people clapped and for cheered for us.
We didn't make it thru the entire game we left quickly to go home celebrate.

I also want to thank JesseU2 for helping me post the video link.

Diamond, you are officially my hero.

Thank you Dave C.
That was very kind of you.

Alot of ppl might be prone to mis judge my motives at of posting this videoclip at first glance.
Some may think it self-serving

Thru out my life I'm always done the zaniest, craziest unexpected things for the ppl I love the most.

I figure, if I know what my motives are and the other party gets it, "what the heck", go for it and let the chips fall where they may.

I do not do a lot of prespeculation on what the repercussions may or may not be.

For the longest time my sweetheart kept carping on ..if we were going to get married or not or when I was going to 'pop the question'.
I kept telling her over and over.."Baby I well pop the question at a time and place when you least expect it.."

I kept the promise.

Thanks to the rest of you for all your kind words.

peace,
db9

you da man db9, congrats.

 

[MissVelvetDress_75]

Let's count how many times Diamond will post his Bono pic in the coming months.

So far I think you are up to 10x's within 2 days.

 

[Chizip]

if you told her youd pop the question when she'd least expect it, wouldnt that mean she would expect it when she'd least expected it, so youd really need to pop the question when she'd most expect it, which i guess would be when she'd least expect it

wow, this is confusing stuff

im glad im never getting married
