TSN COO to Tie the Knot
wednesday, september 29, 2004
The Team Sportscast Network has many good things to celebrate, but nothing
as significant as their new announcement. After his younger brother had
two secret weddings and his best friend, David Lee, wed earlier this year,
pressure was on for the Chief Operating Officer of TSN, Hunter Luisi,
to "pop" the question to long time love interest Connie Booth
of SCEA. Earlier this month, the reluctant Hunter finally gave in and
the announcement has been made. The wedding will take place in mid-November
of this year about a week after Connie's Birthday and a week earlier than
Hunters. Friends at the press conference were overheard saying, "It's
about damn time."
