Sports aren’t all about competition. Sometimes, it serves as a venue to show love and affection to one’s significant other. This coming Valentines’ Day, lovebirds will once again be flocking to sports games to spend time together, and almost guaranteed, Kiss Cam operators will have a field day spotting couples among the crowd.
Don’t be surprised if some of them take advantage of the celebration by proposing. To this, we present…
Top Kiss Cam Moments and Proposals in Sports
The Mani Te’o Kiss Cam
Cavaliers’ fans know the feeling of being left alone (see The Decision), so the guys behind the Cavs’ Kiss Cam concocted the evil plan of sharing the feeling of misery to other people by introducing the Manti Te’o Kiss Cam.
Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova
Hadn’t we had enough when Enrique Iglesias and Anna Kournikova treated every public space as their bedroom in Iglesias’ Escape music video? Apparently not, as this sultry Kiss Cam moment would suggest.
Ian Johnson, Boise State Broncos
For most, scoring the game-winner in a bowl game, as Boise State Broncos running back Ian Johnson did in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl, would be enough to make a day memorable. What made it even more unforgettable was his surprise marriage proposal to girlfriend Chrissy Popadics.
Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler
The Staples Centre nearly exploded when co-stars of 2003’s Anger Management, Jack Nicholson and Adam Sandler (1:13), delighted fans when the latter goaded the hesitant Nicholson into a friendly cheek smooch.
The Kiss Addict
Not everyone reacts conservatively to the Kiss Cam. This woman handed out kisses to anyone within reach!
Beer Kiss
Sometimes you just have to be honest. This guy shamelessly expressed his affection for every man’s true love, beer.
LeBron James and Chris Bosh
Whenever a couple refuses to exchange smooches, we’re always left imagining how things could have gone for those stubborn lovebirds.
Even if LeBron James and Chris Bosh (1:52) didn’t go through with it, their moment makes the list for being outrageous and funny at the same time.
Beer- Spilled, Lonely Guy
First, the poor guy (0:30) thought he was another victim of a Manti Te’o Kiss Cam prank, then the kissing couple behind him accidentally soaks him with beer. Talk about a wet and wild Kiss Cam moment.
J.J. Watt
Though this marriage proposal did not lead to anything legal, J.J. Watt’s class act melted the hearts of many simply because of its sheer thoughtfulness. The marriage was the result of a viral video, wherein six-year old Breanna cried upon learning that she’s too young to marry the Texans’ defensive end.
Luckily, Watt heard of the youngster’s problem and sprang into action.
Watt brought Breanna a Ring Pop, flowers, and a No. 99 jersey before popping the question.
Barack and Michelle Obama
As president of the United States, Barack Obama has had his fair share of difficult decisions to make, but in this instance involving a Kiss Cam, it seemed as though planting a kiss on the first lady was just as hard to pull off. However, he made up for it on the second try and delighted the crowd.
