We all know how it is when our friends are out on a date.
You’re sitting there just waiting for your phone to light up with an update on how it’s going.
Well what if that date happens to be at a televised sporting event with cameras on the whole stadium? That would make it a little easier to keep tabs on the couple, wouldn’t it?
At least that’s the idea that one Twitter user had while his roommate was on a date to an Arizona Diamondbacks game.
Hey @Dbacks my roommate is on a date 6 rows above home plate. Any chance we could tell the camera man to zoom out a bit so I can see how it’s going???

Well apparently the roommate wasn’t the only one curious about the date, because his tweet caught the attention of the Diamondbacks.
He’s wearing a red Dbacks spring training shirt and I think the girl is wearing green.. I really hope he didn’t lie about his seats

And with the help of some location sharing…

The team continued to update the roommate on how the date was looking.
Body language looks good – they seem comfortable. They just laughed too. Stay tuned for more…

Uh oh they're getting up so we're losing eyes on the subjects.

But then, our Romeo must have been tipped off about what his roommate was up to.

So how did the team handle the situation?
They put the couple on the big screen.

And even gave them a couple game balls to help them remember the date.
We got them a couple of game-used baseballs to remember the occasion. 😊 https://t.co/oaMoswYfsj

Seems like it went pretty well.
I mean other than the fact that the Diamondbacks lost to the Colorado Rockies 14-6. But as the team said, love was the real winner at the ballpark that day.

And as for the couple at the center of it all? Turns out it was their second date – and the whole world got to witness it.
Glad my 2nd date was broadcasted to all of Twitter😂❤️ https://t.co/373QnBfQDF
