A handful of Carolina Panthers proposed to their girlfriends prior Jason Heyward Jerseyto training camp, but none showed better imagination than running back Fozzy Whittaker. Not that safety Tre Boston popping the question while pretending to take a selfie in front of the waterfall in Romare Bearden Park, in downtown Charlotte, wasn’t romantic. And you can’t ever go wrong by going to http://www.officialcardinalsmlbshop.com/authentic-37-keith-hernandez-jersey.htmlone knee, as linebacker A.J. Klein did. But Whittaker has to take home the top prize for proposing in a 55-degree pool with beluga whales while vacationing at SeaWorld in San Antonio. “Basically what I did was buy the beluga whale experience where you get to get into the water and actually don’t swim with them, but get to pet them and http://www.officialcardinalsmlbshop.com/authentic-14-ken-boyer-jersey.htmltouch them and do hand gestures to signal them to do tricks," Whittaker explained this past week. “I got in touch with the engagement department, and they hid a ring in one of the fish boxes that they would usually feed the whales out of. “My now-fiancée had no idea what was going on. She just thought there was fish in there. At the end of the experience, I threw out a blue buoy which they use as toys, and it had the words ‘Will you marry me?’ on it." It didn’t go off without a hitch. Whittaker’s fiancée didn’t initially see the buoy and the whale retrieved it. Fortunately, the whale played along and Evan Longoria Jerseybrought the buoy back. Whittaker then got down on one knee and proposed. “It was definitely a memorable moment and something I enjoyed thoroughly," Whittaker said. Whittaker told his fish tale on Monday after quarterback Cam Newton and cornerback Josh Norman got into a scuffle, so it didn’t get a lot of attention. But as you see, http://www.officialraysshop.com/authentic-57-jake-mcgee-jersey.htmlit was a story worth sharing. “I just wanted to do something kind of outside of the box," said Whittaker, a journeyman back who is the backup for starter Jonathan Stewart. “I love animals, and I love being around animals and getting her incorporated into an animal-themed engagement was something I always wanted to do. “It worked out great in the end because she said yes."
