The Rink at Rockefeller Center briefly cleared the ice so Craig Buchholz could propose to boyfriend Sebastian West.
A New York City man organized a fairytale proposal for his boyfriend that temporarily cleared the famous ice skating rink at Rockefeller Center. Craig Buchholz and Sebastian West had one of their first dates at the rink a few years ago. They went back on Thursday, and this time Buchholz worked with Chase Freedom, the sponsor of the ring, to clear the rink so he could propose to West, NBC New York reported.
Buchholz added, “I was actually just exhilarated, and time was going so slow, so I just wanted to get to the clear-the-ice moment.” West and Buchholz celebrated afterward with champagne next to the rink. Tishman Speyer, a real estate company that co-owns Rockefeller Center, told NBC New York that there are about 100 proposals per season at the rink.
