Eric Stonestreet isn’t shy when it comes to making the first move. Just ask Lindsey Vonn.
The pro skier held an impromptu Q&A on Twitter Sunday. Somewhere between “Why type of music do you like?” and “What’s your favorite beer?” — pretty mundane questions — the Modern Family star, 44, spiced things up by asking her out.
Hi @lindseyvonn. Big fan. Have you ever dated Eric Stonestreet?

Oh hi Eric :) are you asking me on a date? https://t.co/v6ozO9gHW4

Funnier yet was what Stonestreet suggested as an activity for their date in light of the 31-year-old Olympian’s profession.
@lindseyvonn Yes. Have you ever been tubing? It’s like skiing but you lay or sit down.

Vonn didn’t reply after that, but Stonestreet shouldn’t take it too hard. Maybe she was busy inner tube shopping on Amazon?
The Kansas native’s love play wasn’t completely out of left field considering that they do know each other. In 2014, they met at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

At the time, he seemed equally as smitten, posting a selfie of them on Instagram. “Met Lindsey what’s her name last night. She ok,” he wrote.
Last summer, Stonestreet was linked to Real Housewives of New York’s Bethenny Frankel, but they never made it red carpet official. As for Vonn, she’s been rumored to have romanced Britney Spears’s ex Charlie Ebersol as well as Formula One racer Lewis Hamilton. Not that it stopped her Twitter followers from asking questions about her ex-boyfriend Tiger Woods during the question and answer session.
Maybe she’ll have someone new to answer questions about next round.
