OoooOh, here's a new twist in the cyberbegging genre (save Karyn, Milliondollarpixels, etcetera) - this dude wants to propose to his girl with a super bowl ad. Yup.
No it gets better - as if the chick won't dump him for blowing all that money on a damn ad instead of say I dunno, a massive house with a tennis court and a pool and it's own drawbridge - he's begging for the superbowl ad money paypal donation style. Mysuperproposal.com has raised $61,931 so far - only two odd million dollars left to go then. This is probably not what it seems, but y'all probably figured that too.

PermalinkMaybe he should try contacting DeBeers...they could sponsor him and give him a ring to present to the gal. ;)

PermalinkIt's probably just a classic scam. He'll give "some" of the money to charity if he can't get enough for a super bowl ad.

PermalinkLets assume for a moment that it is real and this dude intends to propose via a huge superbowl ad. Ok. There is nothing around the website that indicates the Missus-to-be is a massive football fan, so the choice of media placement seems directed more at getting him attention (and/or lots of moolah) rather than fulfill the perfect proposal for his bride to be. It's more about football/attention and less about her. Not good.
Also, how much does he need to get the ad money and cover the taxes? Hmmm?
The moneycount jumped from a thousand to sixty pretty damn fast. Odd.
No, it smells funky.

PermalinkIf it is real, and he gets all these people to give him money for a superbowl spot that airs nationally...it would be rather hilarious if she said no. Again, assuming this is on the level, which I have trouble believing it is.
