Will you marry me?

Today we had something unusual happen at the museum.  A guy arranged to come in around 16:30 and have access to the reproduction of a first class cabin.  We had a volunteer standing there who moved the stanchions away and made sure other people didn't come in.  The guy came in with his girlfriend and they walked into the area.  Then he proposed to her.

I wasn't there to actually see it, but we'd all heard that it was going to happen.  Thankfully she said yes.  Of course Laura (the weekend supervisor) told about the time she was at a game and a guy proposed to his girlfriend via the JumboTron.  Everybody knew who he was because she stood up, slapped him, and stormed out.  That must have been hard to live down--but not as bad as the guy who is apparently planning to propose via a Super Bowl commercial.  It would be incredibly embarrassing if she says no.

PS I guess I'll post the answer to Balderdash tomorrow.  I was hoping for more guesses, :(.
