It’s a story as old as time.
Man meets woman. They fall in love. Then the man waits for woman to ask him to marry her.
Wait, what?
It wasn’t conventional, but there was a marriage proposal at Thursday night’s Canucks game.
And yes, she did the asking.
It’s 2017, why not, right?
Canucks in-game host Hannah Bernard was in on the surprise, as ‘Brandon’ thought he was participating in an in-game contest called the “puck shuffle”. Wearing a Henrik Sedin jersey, Brandon was surely surprised to see “Will you marry me?” on the scoreboard.
That’s when Brandon’s girlfriend, wearing a Daniel Sedin jersey, popped out from the tunnel at section 103, armed with a bouquet of Doritos Ketchup Roses, and popped the question.
How did you guys get engaged?

You can’t actually hear Brandon respond (the microphone wasn’t on him), but fear not, as we have confirmed that he did indeed say “yes!”
