Ronda Rousey has accepted Jarrod Haschert‘s YouTube invitation to the Marine Corps Ball in December.

RONDA ROUSEY GOING TO MARINE CORPS BALL

Haschert, a U.S. marine, posted a YouTube video the other day inviting the UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion, Ronda Rousey, to the Marine Corps Ball.

“You are my celebrity crush, like, I love everything you do, and I think that you are a phenomenal person,” Haschert said in the video. “Which is why it would be my honor to take you to the Marine Corps Ball on December 11. I really hope this doesn’t get in the way of your training for your next fight in January, but I hope you take this in consideration, because if you do you will truly be making my dream come true.”

Rousey’s next UFC fight was originally scheduled for UFC 194 in January, but has since been rescheduled for UFC 193 on November 15.

TMZ caught up with Rousey outside a Wholefoods to inquire about the invitation. When asked if she would take Haschert up on his offer, Rousey responded positively.

“I would go, for sure!” she said, although she wasn’t sure how to approach the situation. “I don’t know, how do I, do I like, call him? Or do I like, set up a time and place like Never Been Kissed, and like, just show up, and you know, like have him waiting there ’til the clock runs out, and then be like ‘I’m here!’”

The TMZ reporter assured Rousey that he would take care of it for her, much to her relief.

“Do you want me to try and get you guys dates?” Rousey turned to her friends in the parking lot – former Octagon veteran Shayne Baszler, Bellator featherweight Marina Shafir and UFC bantamweight Jessmyn Duke. “He needs to find dates for my girls, and then we’ll all go.”

UFC 193: Rousey vs. Holm will take place November 15 in Melbourne, Australia.
