“Pilot here. Guy asked me to fly him and his S.O. over a field, where 150 people had formed a heart and two rings. Huge show; I was really impressed. When she saw it, her response was, ‘Look at all those idiots! How ridiculous is that??’”

Along with some responses from this Reddit thread.

"The camera cut away without a definitive yes. The crowd kind of laughed and groaned, and a 'She said no!' chant started up. I never found a video afterward of the actual proposal, but there is one of the aftermath. The two of them were arguing under a giant Budweiser sign while the camera operator and a security guy or park escort stood awkwardly off to the side waiting it out. The next game I went to didn’t have the proposal feature, and I assume (hope) this incident put an end to it."

"The guy went down on his knee, pulled out the ring, and said, 'Will you marry me?' There was a long, silent pause as the workers and all the people at the Coldstone waited. She pulled him off to the side of the store and they had a quick word while everyone watched. They then went out to his car in the parking lot and sat there. For hours. My friend was still working for about four more hours that night, and the guy was still sitting out there with her when he was done. 

"My friend assumes that she did not say yes. I concur."

"He had misled the camp leaders into believing that he and I were serious and this was a love match so that they would agree to the public proposal between two teenagers, but that was not the case. Once I realized he was serious, I walked away shell-shocked while he stood there crying. It turns out he was leaving for the Army the next month and wanted a wife before then."

"They argued about whether or not she needed hot sauce for a while until finally she just said, 'Okay, whatever.'

"He went over and got some. Came back with a packet, got on one knee, handed her the package that says 'Will you marry me?' on it, and pulled out a cheap-looking engagement ring out of his pocket.

"Keep in mind they'd been dating about three weeks at this point, and we were in the middle of Taco Bell.

"She got this look of absolute shock on her face. And then said yes. They got married a few months later. They got divorced a few months later. And that was the most humiliating trip to Taco Bell of my life."

"The dinner was awkward, and he ended up staying in London by himself for two weeks."

"No clue if they ever got together, but it was hard to watch."

"The guy doing the proposing (who I will call George Michael from now on) started crying and said, 'But I love her and I want her to be my wife, and you and no one else can stop this from happening. Mary, will you be my wife?' The girl (Mary, I guess) looked at him and said, 'Why are you doing this? Don't you ever talk to me again! I hate you for this!' And she ran off. Then George Michael ran in the other direction. The older dude was pissed off beyond belief, and so was the rest of the family. I wanted to clap, but I felt like I would've been killed."

"This guy was on the screen, a prerecording, and asked his girlfriend to marry him, and then the screen showed the guy kneeling down with a ring in the show audience, asking his girl. His girlfriend was visibly horrified and just shook her head. You could almost hear the guy's heartbreak.

"It was on that day that I learned not to do things like that unless a) you're absolutely sure she'll say yes, or b) you ask her in advance and just want to make a good story."

"The guy stood up, took out a cigarette, lit up, and then proceeded to sit down at a nearby café looking as if he didn't have a care in the world. He ordered an espresso and read a newspaper as if nothing ever happened. It was the strangest thing."

"She let go of his hand, he stood up, she slapped him across the face — echoing through the tiny hall — and he stood bewildered as she stormed off the stage. My friend then helped him off the stage and said to the crowd, 'Ah...so. Let's go!' and continued a raging set."

"She started crying and shaking her head no. He kept explaining how much he loved her and how he had a dream from God that they were supposed to get married, and she finally got up and ran out of the student center. The sad thing is that stuff like that isn't uncommon at all at BYU."

"My sister really had to sit him down and explain again that she didn't think she was ready for marriage and might never be, and asked to please not push her into something he knew from the start she might not want. Cut to the Christmas Eve party with both families (because we are all friends), and he busted out a ring and got on one knee in front of EVERYONE. She leaned over and whispered in his ear, and he got up and followed her outside. They spent the rest of the night talking on the back deck while everyone ate, drank, danced, and exchanged gifts without them. They broke up a month later. They are both MUCH happier now!"
