Okay, Boingo fans… in celebration of Valentine’s Day, we invite you to participate in a challenge befitting our most ardent admirers: If you really love us, why don’t you get serious and propose? Yes, we’re talking about a marriage proposal.
Because every suitor is unique, we’re open to receiving different forms of proposals. If you like to express yourself in person, ask for our hand in a video. Are you a paramour of few words? A picture is worth a thousand kisses. Or, if you have a way with words, sweep us off our feet with a love letter or poem.
Now, before you book the reception and sweat over the invite list, we have to warn you: we can’t commit to marrying you. However, as a token of our appreciation, we will reward the best three proposals with the following prizes (not to mention our undying affection):
- First place: the best proposer will receive an Apple iPad (16GB, Wi-Fi only) and a free one-year subscription to Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi.
- Second place: the second best proposer will receive a Roku XDS player for Internet TV entertainment and a six-month subscription to Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi.
- Third place: the third best proposer will receive a Beating Heart Stress Relief Pillow (with built-in heartbeat vibration technology) and a three-month subscription to Boingo Mobile Wi-Fi.
Are you getting in the mood yet? Here’s what you need to know:
- Contest starts February 1, 2011 and ends February 14, 2011 at 11:00 PM PDT.
- Propose to Boingo in the form of a video, photo, love letter OR poem. You may submit only one entry.

Broadcasting and I’ve done my thing… especially for you
XOXO
Thank you, Noel. We <3 you!! (And your proper English accent) 😉
Rushed, But Loved.
Love is strange
But you and I are the same,
Though distance keeps us apart;
Wi-Fi everywhere is a great start.
I’ve loved you since the first green bar,
You’ve loved me since I tweeted you were a star.
Twitter and facebook cannot display
The way I feel about you today.
So from my heart I ask you this
Dear Boingo, will you marry me please?
