Security Changes Man's Marriage Proposal
PRINCE GEORGE, British Columbia (AP) ―
A man in Prince George, British Columbia, thought he had the perfect way to propose to his high school sweetheart. Instead of popping the question on a moonlit Caribbean beach this week, though, Aaron Tkachuk, 24, wound up popping the question to Jennifer Rubadeau, also 24, at an airport security screening station.
A screener at the Prince George airport, Adam Buhler, insisted on having a closer look at the contents of a small box in the toe of a sock. Inside the box was a white gold, diamond and ruby ring.
Tkachuk decided to propose on the spot, and other travelers and security personnel cheered as Rubadeau said yes.
