White Castle, the Ohio-based fast-food hamburger chain, hosted its 29th annual Valentine's Day dinner event, serving more than 30,000 people. There was also a surprise marriage proposal in San Antonio at a pop-up restaurant. It was the largest number of Valentine's Day dinner guests to partake in the nearly 30-year tradition, according to a news release.
