Woman gulps down engagement ring

FARMINGTON (KRQE) - If you're a guy who's planning a surprise engagement proposal to your girlfriend, think twice before you get too clever.

A Farmington man's clever plan didn't turn out as planned, but it sure did make for a memorable engagement.

Reed Harris planned a surprise engagement for his girlfriend Kaitlin Whipple.

The couple went to the local Wendy's, and invited a group of friends for milkshakes.

Harris put the engagement ring in Whipple's shake, and challenged everyone to a chugging contest.

Whipple won the contest, but her ring was nowhere to be found.

So off to the emergency room they went, where an X-ray proved that Whipple did swallow the ring.

After a few days and a lot of fiber, Whipple got her ring. She's now wearing it on her finger.
