Sellouts

The Red Sox have a tasteful Thank You ad in the Globe today, appreciating the 16 million ticket buyers who helped the team set a record for consecutive sellouts. It offers some valuable statistical insight into the stupidity of proposing marriage in front of 37,000 of your closest friends.

648 Marriage proposals
359 Yesses and 89 Maybes

That's over 456 games. Not only are these guys so uncreative that there's more than one proposal per game, 31% of them get shot down flatly! Please, men, at the game you should be on your seat or on your feet, not on your knees.
