Man proposes at Taco Bell after romantic Taylor Swift plans came crashing down

When his plans to propose to his girlfriend at a Taylor Swift concert came crashing down, this hopeful romantic decided Taco Bell would be the next best place. Steve Hofstetter had planned to propose while handing over Taylor Swift tickets to superfan girlfriend Savannah Martin earlier this month.

The 43-year-old was going to write the proposal on re-sale tickets he was secretly planning to snap up as a surprise for her. But the apparent backlash from fans meant some tickets were pulled back and Savannah was one of the lucky ones to be chosen in a lottery to buy them - so she got her mitts on them first.

Steve then decided to incorporate her love of Taco Bell into the proposal and hired out the Etna branch in Pittsburgh, US, on June 17 to surprise her. Pretending that they needed to stop for an impromptu loo break at 11am, Steve managed to get the oblivious insurer into the restaurant.
