If you were one of the many viewers of MTV’s “Jersey Shore” in Statesboro Aug. 18, you might have noticed a special commercial — one where Mike Cristancho, a member of the local band Born-Forty, proposed to his girlfriend, Carrie Loomis, on-air. Carrie was hoping Mike would propose to her, but she wasn’t expecting the proposal to be so soon or so public. The couple started dating more than a year and a half ago after Carrie invited Mike to an event via Facebook.
