TELL SOMETHING GOOD: Crazy engagement story that includes a tornado, an entire girls softball team, and one VERY lucky guy
You probably think you’ve head it all when it comes to engagement and proposal stories on the internet. But I guarantee you haven’t heard one as crazy as this.
A guy in Texas had been planning to propose to his girlfriend and had the ring hidden in their house. That’s when a tornado ripped through the town and destroyed their home. He immediately had to tell her about the ring and they recruited a full junior college girls softball team to help them search for it.
After an extensive hunt through the rubble one girl spotted it under two inches of dirt. He immediately got down on one knee right there and popped the question. They had been engaged for 7 years! She obviously said yes, but then joked “that it was “about [effing] time.”
After thanking the softball team he had a funny quote too saying “”When you tell 20 girls someone is going to get engaged if they find a ring, they are going to find it.”

The teacher joked that “she didn’t comb her hair this morning” and their daughter flipped her off never thinking she’d see- but she did. Her parents were called, and their daughter verbally apologized. Alexis doesn’t think a verbal apology is enough and wants her daughter to write her a card apologizing once again more formally.
