Woman Pops the Question with a Bouquet of Doritos at Hockey Game
In a proposal that’s sure to be remembered, a woman named Lucy Thompson took a creative approach to ask her boyfriend, Jake Ellis, to marry her—all thanks to a little help from Doritos and a hockey game. Planning a proposal can be stressful, but making it go viral? That’s a whole different level of challenge! Thankfully, corporate sponsorships can add a dash of flair to the occasion.
The scene unfolded at a Vancouver Canucks game, where the team shared the unforgettable moment on their Twitter account. In a video, Lucy recounted her love story with Jake and how she decided to take the reins on this momentous occasion. “Proposing to a man can be tricky,” she mused. “You can’t just go for a flashy ring; it needs to be something unique to break from tradition.”
Lucy orchestrated an elaborate setup where Jake was “randomly” selected to participate in the Canucks’ “Puck Shuffle” game. All he had to do was pick the right puck to reveal a “mystery prize”—which turned out to be the ultimate surprise: a new fiancée! When Jake unveiled the message “Will you marry me?” he was momentarily baffled until he turned to see Lucy on one knee holding a stunning bouquet of Doritos roses. And yes, you read that right—Doritos roses are a real thing in Canada, and there’s even a DIY video on how to craft your own!
Naturally, he said yes; who wouldn’t want to marry a woman who proposes with a snack bouquet? “I was really shocked and surprised,” Jake shared with NHL.com. “I knew we were going to the game, but I had no idea something like this was in store.”
Lucy and Jake are now happily engaged, proving that love can come in the most unexpected forms, even with a side of nacho cheese!
