Jason Castro gets mistakenly asked to prom with post-it notes

Asking someone to prom can be daunting. Not only is there a chance that person will say no, forever crushing your dreams, but there’s so much pressure to do it in a spectacular manner these days. 

As one high-schooler is about the find out, it also helps to make sure you ask the right person.

Good try, bad effort? Castro doesn’t seem to believe he was the intended target of the gesture, but it definitely sounds like he would turn down this weak attempt.

Is this what passes for an acceptable invite to prom these days? Get it together, youth of America. In my day, we walked two miles in the snow with flowers in our hands in order to ask our best girl to prom. OK, that didn’t actually happen. We all know sports bloggers are too nerdy to actually attend prom. 

Get it together, mystery high school student. Your message was lame and didn’t receive the intended target. That’s two strikes against you. As in baseball, the third strike will be the most painful if you don’t step up your game.
