A viral moment of a proposal gone wrong has led many people on social media to ask if it was real or staged.
In the video, a couple at an inter-city matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers showed up on a ‘kiss cam’ on the video board.
The male half of the couple, wearing a Rams jersey, excitedly gets up and takes the woman’s hand as he gets down on one knee.
The woman, wearing a Chargers shirt, looks very uncomfortable and is seen shaking her head and telling the man no.
Just when things couldn’t get worse, a woman walking down the stairs with a soda in one hand and a tray of nachos in the other spills both of them on him before apologizing profusely.

But fans who saw the video immediately began throwing cold water on the situation – claiming that it may have been fake.
That’s been backed up by The Athletic’s Rams reporter Jourdan Rodrigue – who posted on Twitter that she ‘watched rehearsals’ of the scene before it went down.
‘WWE wrestling is more believable than this,’ one user commented underneath the video on Twitter.
Another wrote, ‘Not a chance that’s real he’s staring at nacho lady prior to’.
‘I hate how stadiums decided to make staged situations to get laughs and reactions instead of filming genuine fans,’ another user bemoaned.
As for the game itself, it was a low-scoring affair with the Rams holding on to beat their stadium-sharing rivals 13-9.
Rams QB Stetson Bennett completed 17 of 31 passes for 213 yards, one touchdown, and one interception on the night.
