Fake Marriage Proposal
image During an Orlando Magic basketball game on Sunday a man asked his girlfriend to marry him in front of the entire crowd. But instead of saying yes, the woman ran away crying. Which I guess meant no. But two days later it was revealed that the entire thing had been a hoax, "an Orlando Magic marketing ploy to spice up the NBA experience." When I first saw this story I thought it was old news, because I could swear I remember almost the exact same stunt being pulled about a year ago at a different basketball game. The woman involved even looked similar. But although I've been searching I can't find a reference to the earlier incident anywhere. I'm wondering if it was the same couple each time. Maybe they specialize in this stunt.
