Congratulations Randy!!!!!!!!!!!!

A last minute shocker! Randy showed a few great ads from FFP marketing history.

But the one that caught everyone's attention: An AAdvantage poster presenting a ringed finger and the slogan "Was it love, or was it the miles?"

Upon presenting his girlfriend, Julie Armstrong, Randy used the opportunity to pop THE question. The crowd rose, Randy fell to his knees, and Julie accepted (with the occasional squeak of delight).

With that, Randy addressed the crowd. "Thank you very much," he said, "and we'll see you at the bar."

Congratulations Randy and Julie !!!

It takes a VERY confident man to propose in front of a roomful of people at his own awards ceremony, with a live web feed to boot !

Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness !!

I honestly never thought I could be moved to sniffling at a frequent flyer award ceremony. Well, Randy, you've gone and done it now... congratulations and best wishes to you and Julie. Thanks for sharing this very special evening with the rest of us, just as you so openly share the rest of yourself with us.

On behalf of Freddie Jr. and myself, may you have upgrades on all your flights, miles on all your purchases, and most importantly, happiness with the love of your life.

I started crying at the Freddies (second time that night... first was when William got his Industry Impact award)

Congrats Randy and Julie!
