A prom is a night to remember, but it may be hard for this teen to top. Jake Portella, a student at Haddonfield Memorial High School in Haddonfield, New Jersey, enlisted Philadelphia Phillies superstar Bryce Harper to help him with a promposal in a video that has gone viral, with Major League Baseball sharing the clip. In the video, Harper and Portella stand at Giulia Leonetti’s front door. After opening the door, Leonetti is clearly stunned to see Harper, who didn’t beat around the bush.
“I was talking to one of my friends and I was like, ‘There’s some Phillies players who live in town, it’d be cool if I could get one of them to help me with it.’” Portella, who was thinking about a “Will you go to prom with me?” poster, knocked on Harper’s door and asked if the slugger would help in any capacity, with the idea that Portella’s promposal would come in a few days. Harper jotted down Portella’s email address and said he’d look into what he could do for him.
