It's
usually the players - not the spectators - who strike-out at baseball
games.
But
hopeless romantic David was thrown a curve ball after asking his
girlfriend Jessica to marry him at a New Britain Rock Cats minor
league game in Connecticut last week.
And
judging by his reaction, it seems the brave Lothario wasn't prepared
for the outcome.
The
couple were on the field answering questions when the announcer
passed the microphone to David, who one commenter claims worked for
the team.
'Will
you marry me Jessica?' he asked.
Stepping
back with her hands over her mouth, Jessica stammered: 'David, I'm
sorry, I can't.'
She
then sprinted out of the stadium as the announcer laughed.
'Sorry,
I don't mean to laugh David, I don't think we've ever had this happen
before,' he said.
The
rejected suitor turned as red as his T-shirt as he ran out away, with
the mascot still dancing around the field.
If this was for real, I don't get the guy. Shouldn't you be very sure a girl loves you and is willing to spend the rest of her live with you before you come before the entire world to propose to her?
She may love you but isn't ready yet to settle down and putting a mic in her face before a huge crowd, trying to force words into her mouth isn't a good idea. I don't know her reasons for saying 'NO' but I do hope they both settle things and remain friends. Then the story would truly have a happy ending.
