Big question gets the wrong answer

Couples love to smooch for the Mistletoe Cam at basketball games but when it came to a proposal of marriage at one recent UCLA game, it went badly wrong.

One willing Lothario thought the opportunity to appear on TV was too good to pass up and rather than simply kissing his beloved, he proposed in front of the hundreds of fans, and the television cameras.

Sadly for him, the target of his affections disagreed and in a moment that surely left him willing the court to open up and swallow him whole, she made a drastic run for the arena's exit.
