Central Illinois couple gets engaged because of Super Bowl commercial

Updated: February 5, 2013

A central Illinois woman is planning her wedding, after her boyfriend proposed to her on a t.v. commercial right before the Super Bowl.

John Frehrichs won the WCIA Super Proposal contest and asked Mara Hampton to be his wife.
It took some careful planning to pull everything off.
As the couple explains live on The Morning Show, Mara almost missed the big moment!

Comments

John's last name is spelled FRERICHS. Not Frehrichs.....
