Bubby Lyles who is a journalism student at Georgia State, seems like a nice kid and he has a crush on Lolo Jones.
He decided the best way to get her attention was by asking her for a date if he was able to get 150k RTs on Twitter (he was able to get the 150k late in 2013 and pretty quickly).
If I get 150,000 RTs @lolojones will let me take her on a date! Help me out! pic.twitter.com/j9hFfxqlCi

Everything looked like it would be a go, but then Lolo, being Lolo backed out of the agreement.
I am sorry to let you all know that the date with Lolo Jones is not going to happen. Thanks for the support that you all have shown me.

Although the date isn't happening, what we did was still amazing, and I appreciate every last one of my 150,000 wingmen that offered up a RT

Nice job Lolo.
