Quincy Pondexter was feeling a bit lonely after the Memphis Grizzliers were eliminated from the playoffs by the San Antonio Spurs, so he did what any professional basketball player dude with a Twitter account would do and went looking for love.
Pondexter started his quest for female companionship by putting out a simple question to his followers.
Who won Miss Tennessee this year?

Yep, Pondexter didn’t even have a specific woman in mind. Well, as long as they were a beauty pageant winner.
And despite the anonymous request, Chandler Lawson, the 2012 winner of the Miss Tennessee beauty pageant, was still flattered by the request.
@quincypondexter hi! Heard you were looking for me? #gogrizz

Now, here is where Pondexter really ups his game. In fact, the NBA player is so smooth that some people may confuse him with a desperate 7th grader.
Yup!! single? Lol “@misstn2012: @quincypondexter hi! Heard you were looking for me? #gogrizz”

You single, LOL? Seriously? How is this working for this guy?
“@jon_roser: Man there is nothing funnier than @quincypondexter mackin on @misstn2012 on twitter” I’m lovin’ it! And yes, totally single!

By this time Pondexter was getting a little tired. I mean, he had already sent like three entire tweets. So the NBA player decided that it was finally time to ask his crush out on a date.
Oh totally single? Ditto … Date? Lol @misstn2012

And the amazing part is that Chandler said yes. Granted, this exchange happened in front of a public internet crowd and Miss Tennessee may have been feeling a bit of pressure. Still, Quincy Pondexter successfully scored a date with Miss Tennessee via Twitter.
@quincypondexter you got it! We’ve got an audience waiting apparently!
