A U.S. Marine is calling out Ronda Rousey, but he's not looking for a fight.
Rather, Jarrod Haschert is looking for a date for the Marine Corps Ball later this year. In a video which he posted to Facebook, the marine says that Rousey is his celebrity crush and that it would be a dream come true if she could accompany him on the night.
(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = "//connect.facebook.net/en_GB/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.3"; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));
Hey guys, I'm trying to take Ronda Rousey to the Marine Corps Ball this year and I need your help to reach out to her and her fans. Please share this post and video. Thank you!!

The video has garnered over three million views, and is going viral all around the world, but Rousey has yet to respond to Haschert's request.
It may prove more difficult than he thought, however, as the date could conflict with Rousey's training for her fight on January 2nd against Holly Holm.
This isn't the first time that Rousey has been asked out over social media, as Ohio State's quarterback Cardale Jones has, on several occasions, tried to see if he could get a response from the champ.
Soooooooo @RondaRousey what you doing after the show?

@RondaRousey but if you already talking to a UFC fighter I'm cool 😂

Rousey was flattered, but she declined to take him up on the offer.
He asked. She answered. @RondaRousey responds to @CJ12_'s tweets! https://t.co/AnRhPJhc3P
