Cheesy Marriage Proposal Fills The Skies Of West L.A.
The skies over West L.A. got a little schmaltzy this afternoon as a skywritten marriage proposal briefly appeared.
The words "MARRY ME MICCO," "LOVE UNCONDITIONALLY" and "FOREVER LOVE," among others, turned up in the skies—the messages seen from Beverly Hills to Santa Monica. Despite the played out skywriting proposal thing (at least it wasn't a flash mob), Micco did say yes, which locals were notified to by a followup message in the sky that said "MICCO SAID YES." If we're going by letter count, "NO" would have been cheaper for the groom-to-be, but yay for love.
Future fiancees of L.A. are probably angrily rethinking their own marriage proposals right about now.
