Cupid.com/PreDating Establishes Guinness™ World Record With Nearly 100 Simultaneous Speed Dating Events

Cupid.com/PreDating (www.cupid.com/predating), North America's largest speed dating company, announced today that its attempt to establish the Guinness™ World Record for the largest simultaneous speed dating event ever held in one evening was a major success.

Poughkeepsie, NY (PRWEB) February 12, 2006 -- Cupid.com/PreDating (www.cupid.com/predating), North America's largest speed dating company, announced today that its attempt to establish the Guinness™ World Record for the largest simultaneous speed dating event ever held in one evening was a major success. More than 150 PreDating parties too place in 92 cities in the US and Canada on Wednesday evening, February 8th in celebration of the upcoming Valentine’s Day holiday. In all, nearly 3,000 eligible singles participated in the record-breaking event, which equates to more than 36,000 6-minute speed dates during the evening.

Eric P. Straus, President & CEO of Cupid.com said, "We know that singles want to find someone special with whom to share Valentine’s Day. We thought it would be fun to attempt to establish this new record just prior to the annual lovers’ holiday. I can tell you that we are thrilled with the participation and look forward to seeing Cupid.com in the Guinness™ Book of World Records.”

Now that the requisite elements have been fulfilled, Guinness World Records, Ltd. will certify the event, which may be listed in the next edition of the Guinness Book of World Records. One unidentified participant in Albany, New York seemed to echo the sentiments of most speed daters that attended when she was heard saying “It was a blast. I want to come back next month and do it all over again!”
