This is actually a great story. Our close friends in our bible study just announced last night that they are engaged. Brice is a HUGE Clemson fan. Probably the biggest I know. Seriously, when he goes on misson trip he brings orange Clemson t-shirts to give to all the kids.
Well, he and his now fiance Kim, is a huge Gamecock fan. This past weekend she gave in to go to the Clemson game and actually wear orange for the first time.

At the end of the game Brice said if we win you have to go up to the Rock and touch it. I guess this is a Clemson tradition that everyone does. So He had it all planned out. They would walk up the hill Kim would touch the rock and then when she turned around he would be on one knee.
Well, close enough. I will give you Kim's side of the story. Clemson did win against Florida State. So they walked up the hill to touch the rock.(more like elbowed there way up to the rock. People were every where. So she touched the rock and turned around and Brice was there not kneeling because all he could picture was people trampling over him and injuring his hopefully soon to be fiance'. So instead he stood there and asked her to be his wife.

Her answer was "ARE YOU SERIOUS?" Brice assured her he was and took out the ring and placed it on her finger and she said Yes. She really couldn't believe that she was getting proposed to at a Clemson game at the rock for that matter. What will all her gamecock friends think?
Isn't it funny how much of a rivalry we really are? I love this story . Brice assured us the only reason he did it at the game was because she would least expect it! Just thought I would share this lovely couples great news!

What a great story and one they will spend years recapping, I'm sure!!
Congratulations to Brice! We grew up togther, but I haven't seen him in years!!
I think that was a terrific story! Sometimes it is funny the things we say when proposed to. I said the same thing..."are you serious". And Matt had the ring out already and everything. Ah, but that was 7.5 years ago now.
