He knew without knowing, which is the mark of a Zen master.

As you'll hear at 2:19 in the video, Jonathan Foos of Fort Collins didn't realize that his now fiance Alicia had dreamed specifically of hearing the big question at her hometown stadium since she was a little girl. He knew she dug it, but didn't realize it was the spot of spots for her.

Nailed it.

He set up a tour of the stadium on a game day, and invited his old teacher, now a photographer along to capture the moments. Alicia didn't know the two women there were in on the operation, and they played it perfectly, shooting nonchalant pictures that are a permanent part of Jonathan and Alicia's story. Turns out Jonathan's old teacher, Rachel Hill, is now a photographer who was available for the day, and she was happy to be in on the plan.
