    A section of the Olympic Park has been dubbed 'Marry Mound' after several young men used the iconic Olympic Rings as the backdrop for a wedding proposal.

    The list now includes Bram Lobeek and Hetty van der Pennen from the Netherlands.

    In celebration of their looming nuptials, British Airways, which runs the 10-thousand capacity Park Live viewing area, has given them tickets to the women's hockey gold medal match, to see their home team take on Argentina for the gold medal.

    British Airways estimates that some 25 couples have gotten engaged under the rings since the games began.
