Welp, This NHL Fan Proposing To Her Girlfriend Is The Best


During the second intermission of Saturday night’s Leafs-Senators game in Ottawa, just about the sweetest damn thing you’ll ever see in your life occurred. A Leafs fan named Alicia stood on the ice wearing a blindfold, removed it, was greeted by a big screen message from her girlfriend Christina (who is a Senators fan), and was then proposed to on the ice. She said yes.

Although I rarely co-sign the use of Bruno Mars in any situation, I will in this instance. I also fully co-sign everything else about this. Video, via the NHL, is here.

    Canada is so 21st century and all we do in America is call them our “hat” We’re sooooooo advanced aren’t we?

    Marriage is between a man and a woman. Period.

    Doesn’t matter, you can get married in the US if you’re gay. So.. your side already failed and you lost and you will continue to lose.. cause you’re a LOSER, most Republicans are these days ;)

    You know come to think of it… Republicans lost on abortion too, they also lost the election. So keep it up, keep being a dick to women/minorities/scientists, it’s really put Republicans in a stellar position to lose the next election.

    Obama and I are both against gay marriage. Is Obama a loser too. Let me answer – yes cause Romney is going to beat him in Nov. so go ahead and start calling us all racists too because thats what liberals do when they can’t win an argument.

    If you want to subscribe to a religion, community or personal philosophy that espouses that view you’re entitled to do so.  But what is your justification for criticizing, or believing the state should deny marriage rights to, two loving people who obviously do not share your opinion?

  • News Of The World

    But apparently it’s not.  They’re getting married.  Duh.  Welcome to the 21st century.

  • Anonymous

    Would a guy that doesn’t believe in gay marriage get rid of  ’Don’t Ask Don’t Tell’. Come on Jeff, I’m sure you’re smart  enough to read between the lines. We all know Obama supports gay marriage and isn’t super-religious. 

  • Paul

    Times change.  Values change.  End of discussion.  Period.  Typically, the USA will be the last country on Earth to get on board with the new reality.  I don’t believe you are a racist, Jeff.  I suspect you are a very nice person.  But there is no turning back now.  And it’s not only people on the left who support this movement.  People on the right are doing so as well.  Anyway, peace to you.

    yes because ANYONE should be a ‘little less equal’ in your world.

    Little bit of  biblical history here…. I urge that you check out the Book of Ruth “Ruth loved Naomi as Adam loved Eve” Ruth 1:14.  Also if yo’re feeling up to it- check out Genesis 2:24.
    Have a peaceful day.

  • Clovis4

    Using the length of time a custom has been around is not an argument. Slavery has been around for almost the entire life of modern man, ~250,000 years; are you good with that ?  Marriage has evolved in different ways in different cultures, including marriage between the same sexes, multiple spouses’
    group marriages, etc.  And many historians believe the origin of marriage was the male need for assurance of the paternity of the children.

    not a republican fan…but the personal attacks against conservatives doesn’t help the liberals….  the problem as someone who understands both parties are giving it to the average joe…is the knuckleheads on both sides feel the need to enlighten the other..just because you have the right in this great country to voice your opinion..doesnt mean you are right..or mean that other people have to listen to your nonsense or agree with it.. for the 99% of people with no leadership skills  try action (ie voting) and please be quiet  not because someone else tells you to …but you are hurting your own cause  both sides on here look like narrow minded bigots and you are the problems not the solutons

  • Paul

     I agree.  Well-stated.

    As someone who went to Catholic school for a long time I think I can some it up this way. Jesus taught love, tolerance and empathy. If you have to hate anyone for what they do that doesn’t hurt anyone you are doing it wrong.

    says who?

  • Charley James

    What a beautiful scene, and I’m delighted that the crowd greeted the proposal – and “Yes” – with raucous cheers. Regardless of their politics or religion, Canadians understand that love between two people is a wonderful thing and shouldn’t be limited by sexual orientation. The best of luck to Alicia and Christina!

    If it was Rosie O’Donnell and some other fat pig, would you have said it was just about ‘ ….the sweetest damn thing you’ll ever see…”  ( Dan, that comment alone is gay…)

  • zrodfx

    Obama is against gay marriage because he’s a MUSLIM….all of the ‘tolerant types on here, try it in a MUSLIM cuntry…….

  • zrodfx

    Religion has nothing to do with it……..it’s not NATURAL !!!!!!!!!!

  • HasAHuzzbunn

    I don’t generally like to confuse a good fight with, you know, facts, but I’m about as Republican as they come, Conservative as hell, and a big ol’ homo (I don’t think I’m a big enough sissy to be, um, “gay”).

    Although the Liberals would like you to think so, the two don’t necessarily cancel one another out.  Also, I don’t believe in gay marriage, but I absolutely don’t believe in DOMA.  And, no, I don’t call my “partner” my partner.  He’s my boyfriend.  And sometimes, if he’s being an especially good boyfriend, I call him my Husband (actually, I call him “Mah Huzzbunn!”), and he calls me HIS Husband.  For the record, since he’s not as funny as I am, he almost never calls me his Huzzbun.  Although he should.

    Finally, I’m not 100% convinced that Canadians know all THAT much more about love anent sexual orientation than Americans do, but far be it from me to say that too loud. . .I don’t want to be responsible for starting a war between us and our Northern Sister, which she would almost surely win. . . .Canadians may be smaller in number than the population of the US, but they’re really REALLY scrappy.

    Marriage is only a society construct. Different forms have existed over the eons. Its primary purpose was designating a woman as your property and from that who your heirs would be. Read another book besides the bible dips hit. Sorry to say you’ll be worn againObama is going to win again I guess you backed McOld Cain bottom of his class war hero from like mid last century the last time.

  • http://twitter.com/marionetta marionetta

     Not in Canada.  Marriage is between two people who love each other.

  • DavidKramer

    Or one person, or an animal and a person, or an adult and a child, or whatever the twisted will come up with next.

  • Staceyclose

    Holy crap, HAH… You about made me spray wine all over my iPad!! From one conservative to another, thank you for humor and input. I am not a supporter of gay marriage either, but as for civil unions, I say, have at it! :). God bless you and your “huzzbun”.

    Lame.

  • http://waxingerratic.wordpress.com/ ECM

    I have to agree: that’s about as sane as Biden calling the Bin Laden raid the most “audacious plan” in 500 years.

    (It doesn’t even matter if they’re gay: short this being a cat proposing to a dog, it’s as generic as all the rest of these sports events marriage proposals.)

  • corri anderson

    Jeff, you don’t know what was acceptable regarding marriage in other parts of the world (outside of Europe), you don’t know what kind of relationships were tolerated before the bain that is Christianity.  So please, stay off the progressive sports sites and take your Iron Age mentality with you.  No one cares what you think about marriage, nor do we care what Santorum thinks either.  

  • corri anderson

    Obama is not against gay marriage, it’s just he can’t be for it given there are so many small minded morons who vote according to a false sense of piousness that is actually pure intolerance.  You are being a douche, go back to Mediaite. zrodfx, you are a clown.

  • corri anderson

    Who is “liking” this garbage.  You people should be ashamed. 

  • corri anderson

    Or a senior citizen and a teen.  Oh wait, that’s okay with Christianity, my bad.

    Well, when you put it like that, it suddenly makes sense. My tolerance for others is swept away in a fervent tide of CAPITAL LETTERS and SUPERSTITIOUS NONSENSE!
