A member of the Missouri band decided to make the band’s performance before the Tigers’ homecoming game against Memphis even more special.

He took a risk and went for the marriage proposal on the field since his girlfriend is also a member of the band. Nothing like making yourself more nervous for a marriage proposal than by doing it in front of tens of thousands of people.

The risk worked! She was clearly surprised. Congratulations to the happy couple.

Maybe it was a good omen for the football team as well. Missouri sprinted out to a three-touchdown lead over Memphis in the first quarter.
