The apparent proposal came at the end of a halftime contest on the Wizards home court Saturday night.
The woman was blindfolded, sent out on the court, and told if she could find a local bank's mascot, she would win free Wizards tickets.
As the crowd yelled 'hot' and 'cold,' the woman roamed the court for about 10 seconds.
Then, as she found and touched the bank mascot, she was told she won the contest.
However, the public address announcer said there was a surprise.
The man appeared from the bank mascot's costume, grabbed a microphone and then got down on one knee.
As he began to speak to the woman, she paused and grabbed her face in shock.
Then, as the crowd expected the man to pop question, the woman turned away from the man, and sprinted full speed across the basketball court.
After running up a tunnel, she was stopped by a security guard.
There was no indication on the broadcast whether the proposal was legitimate or not.
But the stunt surprised the groaning crowd as a message saying, 'She said No!' appeared on the arena's scoreboard.
