Now, if you were superstitious the chain of events told below might have given you significant pause for thought. Yahoo

Okay, Adam, you SO cannot plan the wedding... <!-- END HEADLINE -->
<!-- BEGIN STORY BODY -->Mon Jul 24, 2:01 PM ET


A young man's plan to propose to his girlfriend on a small chartered plane almost ended in disaster when the plane crashed and the engagement ring was lost in the wreckage.
Adam Sutton, 19, told Erika Brussee, 18, they were going on a date to the movies but instead took her to the airport in Rome, a town in northwest Georgia, for a chartered flight on Friday, according to the WSB-TV Web site.
The plan was for family members to hold up a large sign on the ground with the words "will you marry me" on it. But Brussee only saw the word "marry" because part of the sign was obscured before the plane, flying slowly at low altitude, stalled and crashed on the tarmac at Rome's airport.
The couple were not seriously hurt, Mike Mathews, airport manager at Richard B. Russell Regional Airport, told Reuters on Monday.
Brussee finally said "yes" to the proposal in the ambulance, Mathews said, but Sutton wasn't able to give her the ring. Only the ring's box could be found after the crash.
The plane's pilot was knocked unconscious by the crash and Sutton had to pull him from the plane.

I guess they can truthfully say that they are willing to do this for better or worse. :biggrin:
 
What ever happened to getting down on one knee? Serves him right for trying some lame-ass gimmick proposal. I gotta give him some credit though - at least he didn't propose on the jumbotron at a ballgame. :roll2:
