Rodney Cortes and Stacy Bolf celebrate their recent engagement at Super Bowl XLIV in Miami, Fla.

Good Morning America announced the winner of “The GMA Extreme Proposal Challenge” this morning. It’s a nice story that ends with the Groom, Rodney Cortes,  surprising his Bride, Stacy Bolf, with a proposal at a Super Bowl party.

Although congratulations is due the happy couple and as memorable a moment as it may have been for them (which is all that really mattters), I’m not sure, in the scheme of a National contest that touts the word “Extreme,” that this one hits that mark.

What do you think? What is the greatest or most “extreme” proposal of marriage story you’ve heard? Maybe it’s your own!
