Putting that kind of pressure on her? He deserves an epic fail.

Tell him Hell No!

Why the publicity?

Yep, again, that’s why I hate huge public proposals. Propose in private first so you know the other person didn’t feel pressured to say Yes when they really didn’t want to. Then later on you can do a big splashy public proposal.

How did the Jumbotron pick up their voices?

Ya knows, I beginnin’ to wonder if she should marry him! He’s so used to his pubilicity freeing him from spending money & such a tightwad when it comes to spending on himself, and now, this??? Seems really wrong.

“no pressure”, which means, of course, means lots of pressure!

Well, feh! That is pretty stinky of him. And then to say what he just said! Ick!

At least he’s warning her in advance.

She should run away very fast while yelling, “No! No! A thousand times no!”

Big Gut Laugh here.

And the Glovers/Cobbs are going to have a field day, either way! \(^0^)/

“Lemme think about it. The answer will be yes, but I like to mess with the press.”

If she says “No”,loudest “BOOOOOOO!!” in history to follow.

Couldn’t they have gone to a Baltimore Orioles game where nobody’s watching?

Yikes. I’d say no if he did that to me.

You’ll have to say yes now, but later on you can hand him his butt and his ring!

Nicole: I was gonna say yes but not now.

I would tell him “this is not the place to discxss a marriage proposal. We’ll talk about it in private”.

The press are going to be having a field day regardless

I proposed on the JumboTron once. It went really well; her family were in attendance (at different parts of the stadium; she didn’t know they were there until after she’d accepted and they came to where we were seated). We never got married, though; I realized a couple months before the wedding our lives were going in different directions and it wouldn’t work. Still, it was a good and fun memory (to me, anyway).

Gonna shove the cake in her face at the reception too?

If she says “yes”, that stadium will erupt in cheers and clapping that will be heard for miles!

I get from having read the strips that he actually love her, but I’m actually hoping she says no at this point.
