As I mentioned before a public proposal is seen by some as "bad luck" but I also feel that the proposal should be private. The wedding is to be shared with your friends and family but the proposal is just the two of you.
I've seen SOOOO many proposals at baseball games over the years and I usually don't pay attention. But there was one guy I just had to give kudos to. Usually the stadium starts pumping the Wedding March over the PA system and the guy gets down on his knee. But this guy did more than that. He had a bunch of his buddies in the upper deck and they were each holding a large sign with a letter on it. When held up the signs spelled out "SAY YES!" While the idea of proposing on the Phanavision is overdone this guy got points for creativity.

We must have different Gods. My God said "do to others what you would have them do to you". Your God seems to have said "My Way or the Highway".
