A proposal at a hockey game.
Itâs fairly common to see someone propose on the Jumbotron at a sporting event. A couple from Virginia, however, found a new way to add some drama. They turned their Jumbotron proposal into a *Wheel of Fortune-*style game.
It all went down at the Coca-Cola Center in Toronto, Canada, during a Professional Womenâs Hockey League matchup between the Toronto Sceptres and the New York Sirens.
The couple, Nina Borgeson and her partner, Meg Beizer, appeared to be playing a game similar to Wheel of Fortune during a break in the hockey match, but Meg knew otherwise. The announcer asked her, âWhat three letters are you going to guess next?â After the traditional RSTLNE were put up on the board, she replied, âW, O, U,â making it obvious what the puzzle said.
Nina solved the puzzle:Â âWILL YOU MARRY ME?â
Meg then got down on one knee and, in front of the cheering crowd, she popped the question. Meg slipped the ring on Ninaâs finger, they kissed, and Nina raised her hand in celebration.
The couple traveled to the game from Virginia, and when Meg learned that it was Pride night, she knew it was the perfect time to ask for Ninaâs hand in marriage. âThis league quickly became a big part of our life and something so special to us,â Meg told Queerty. âThe community is unlike any other fan base Iâve ever seen. I knew sharing it with other fans would make our proposal that much more special and memorable, and it exceeded expectations. The amount of love and support we received was something we will truly never forget.â
The proposal was presented in a 'Wheel of Fortune' game format on the Jumbotron, adding a fun twist to the traditional proposal.

PWHL games have become a popular place for LGBTQ women to propose. Back in December, at an Ottawa Charge game, two women were being interviewed when the conversation veered into unexpected territory. âI love this community, I love everything thatâs been given to us,â a woman named Theresa said into the microphone, âand I canât think of a better moment to ask DaniâŠâ she said before dropping to one knee and proposing.
The PWHL just completed its third regular season, during which it saw attendance and viewership expand dramatically. This season, the league expanded from six to eight teams and saw attendance eclipse the million mark for the first time. Attendance was up 28% this season, with the average game attendance rising from 7,230 in 2024-25 to 9,304. Viewership is also up on the leagueâs YouTube channel. This season, viewership across the U.S. and Europe increased by 77%.
The league saw an opportunity for growth after womenâs hockey made headlines in Milan earlier this year, with the U.S. womenâs team beating Canada for the gold medal. âWe knew this moment was going to be big for us,â PWHL executive vice president of business operations Amy Scheer told The Athletic, âand felt that this could be a game changer for us.â
