I agree with others and I wouldn't do it at the game. Frankly, it's tacky in a "I got married at a monster truck rally" sort of way. Getting engaged is memorable, just by the nature of what you are doing. You don't need a gimmick to make it special.

Frankly, I wouldn't do it in front of an audience (her family) either. I'd go to the game, go back to the room, clean up, go to a nice dinner and ask her there. Entering into betrothal just shouldn't be a spectacle. It's a very personal contract and your girl deserves the privacy of sharing your thoughts without having to perform for the crowd. After she accepts, if you want to meet up with your folks for a celebratory gathering, knock yourself out.
