What do fart jokes, Adam Sandler and video games have in common?
Cookie Masterson has the answer.
In one of the most bizarre and utterly cool wedding proposals of all time, John Crane Zekind proposed to his girlfriend, Kara Marie Richter, via the famed pop-culture game, You Don’t Know Jack.

Here’s the full proposal video below. It’s a “When You Wish Upon a Star” moment that the writers of Once Upon a Time would be jealous of.
Fellas, now that You Don’t Know Jack has been done, lets see which of you creative gamers can top it with another video game. How about a proposal from Master Chief in honor of Halo 4? Then again, what do you do when she chooses Master Chief over you? Yikes.
