(6/10/03 - EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ) — There was a lot riding on Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals for Mighty Ducks fan Christina SerVoss, and not all of it was on the ice.
Her longtime boyfriend Steve De Sena said he would ask for her hand in marriage if the Ducks won the Stanley Cup. After the team lost 3-0 to the New Jersey Devils on Monday night, it looked like another fairy tale might not have a happy ending.
But with a national television audience watching the post-game festivities, De Sena got on one knee and proposed to a tearful SerVoss. She said yes.
"I feel like we're living the Cinderella story right now," De Sena, 32, of Mission Viejo. "Only the glass slipper is in the shape of a duck foot."
The couple have known each other for seven years and dated for five. De Sena was a chronic procrastinator but he told SerVoss before the playoffs that if the Ducks should win the Stanley Cup, he would marry her.
With the Ducks trailing the Devils on Monday, it appeared that SerVoss, 30, might not get what she wanted. What she didn't know was that De Sena had already made up his mind.
"I think I decided this in Game 3," De Sena said. "I just knew it was the time; I knew it was right." You can join Unsolved Mysteries and post your own mysteries or
