He would be in trouble if he said no.
How you like that, Ricci?
Gilas Pilipinas and former University of the Philippines Fighting Maroons forward Ricci Rivero was at the Philippine Arena in Bulacan last Saturday.
But he's not there to compete in any basketball game. The player known for his euro-steps and dunks joined the thousands of Blinks to witness Blackpink's Born Pink Concert.
Rivero though had the spotlight for a moment during the concert after members of the world sensation girl group noticed Andrea Brillantes' placard.
It said, "Just want to ask Ricci Rivero, will you go to prom with me?" Blackpink Rose read the sign, to the delight of other fans inside the arena.
"Will you?" Rose asked Ricci (who she called "Ricky" while reading the placard). Of course, Rivero obliged with a yes.
Apparently, the "promposal" is for Star Magic's prom where Brillantes, Rivero's girlfriend, is about to attend.
Any news though about Ricci's basketball career? Rivero has yet to make a comeback in the 5-on-5 pro scene, but signed with the Blackwater Bossing's 3x3 team last month.
