Eight Best Techie Marriage Proposals

by Dan Reilly on April 30, 2008 at 01:20 AM



Super Bowl Equals Romance?

Rand Fishkin's idea for his marriage proposal took the whole "halftime at the big game" idea to a whole new level. The NFL fan started a Web site to raise enough money for a Super Bowl ad where he'd ask for his girlfriend's hand in front of 130 million viewers. He actually got $75,000 without her finding out, but was too late to buy the TV time, so instead the commercial aired, with advertiser's backing, during her favorite show, 'Veronica Mars.' She was shocked and said yes, and the couple decided to donate the money he raised to charity.
