Teen uses dance video to woo homecoming date

Leesburg High School student posts video on YouTube

LEESBURG, Fla. – For Leesburg High School drum major Howard Lin, asking a girl to the homecoming dance is no walk in the park, it's more of a choreographed solo.

"I like these big grand gestures and I think that she particularly deserved it," Lin said.

Last weekend the 17-year-old put on his dress clothes, grabbed his buddy with a camera, and put together a YouTube homecoming invite that one girl will never forget.

Dancing through the park down the street from his house, Lin's goal was to make his invite fun, memorable, and so irresistible she couldn't say no.

Lin's video may go viral, but he says he's only concerned with the reaction of one person, Leah Wertz, who said yes.

"I cried.  It was so nice.  I never had anybody do something that nice for me," Wertz said.
