Lemont Man Tries to Score with CSN Reporter During Blackhawks Game

A man has become an overnight star on Chicago sports radio and Internet blogs after he bravely declared his love for a Comcast reporter during an on-air contest at the Chicago Blackhawks game.

The man—identified as Greg DiMenna, a 2004 graduate of — was one of three lucky participants Thursday night in the Blackhawks' "Shoot the Puck" contest prior to the third period.

During an on-air interview for Comcast SportsNet, DiMenna gave a brief shoutout to his sister before putting his arm around reporter Sarah Kustok and confessing his love in front of a packed house at the United Center.

"I love you Sarah," DiMenna said. "You're so pretty and beautiful. I love you."

In an interview after the game, Kustok joked that she and Greg are eloping soon.

"It was my best 'Shoot the Puck' of the year," she said.

No word on whether DiMenna won the contest. And in case you're wondering, the Blackhawks beat the Minnesota Wild by a score of 5-2.
