It was the easiest quiz question Jemma Thompson had ever been asked.
Jemma came to the Bistro Live Fun Pub Quiz in April when boyfriend of three years, Baz, went up on stage to ask her a bonus question for a bottle of champagne.
He called her on stage, but instead of reading from the quiz card, he got down on one knee and asked: “Will you marry me?” Stunned Jemma was overcome with tears, but did not have to think about the answer – or make an educated guess. In a recent interview by the Leicester Mercury, the 23-year-old said: “I was just so shocked. I was thinking I couldn’t believe he’d done that. “Then I cried and I went to kiss him and said, ‘Yes’.”
Baz had contacted the Bistro Live Leicester team earlier in March and expressed his interest in doing a dramatic proposal, he said: “I knew it would be something Jemma would remember. “After the main quiz had finished, the quiz master picked me and got me on stage to ask one of my team mates a bonus question, so I asked Jemma up. “She came up on stage thinking I was going to ask the question on the card in the envelope I had. “But instead, I told her how much I loved her and everything, then dropped to one knee and said, ‘Will you marry me?’ “The place erupted. Her hands went up to her face and she was really tearful and happy…”
So Jemma may not have won the Bistro Live Fun Pub Quiz prize but she definitely left with a smile from ear to ear! Congratulations to the couple and we will see you Jemma for your Hen Night!!
