Muppets Marriage Proposal

by Colleen Barrett 7

The public marriage proposal is a divisive proposition — you don't want to guilt someone into a yes only to have it rescinded or be rejected — but a smitten photographer from New Hampshire managed to do it tastefully (i.e. without herding up a circle of gawkers for a very personal moment).

Sid Ceasar bought Muppets, made them look like himself and his girlfriend, created this video, and then persuaded a local theater to play it during previews. And it worked!
