Former Southern U player uses marching band to pop the question (PHOTOS)

Former Southern University fullback Calvin Mills needed a little help from friends to propose to his girlfriend Brittney Ramsey Saturday afternoon.

So Mills used the school's famous marching band to help him pop the question during halftime of the Bayou Classic in front of 41,000 people.



He even used Ramsey's young daughter as ring bearer in a giant box as if the the whole band thing wasn't big enough.

And she said yes.


Well played. That's an unique twist on taking a knee on the football field.
