The Atlanta Hawks’ Tinder night deserves the biggest of right swipes.

The team used the popular dating app for a promotional “Swipe Right Night” that encouraged Tinder users to meet other fans during Wednesday’s game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Hawks now can boast about being matchmakers in addition to owning the best record in the Eastern Conference.

The team went all-in on the idea — and then some — setting the stage for some Tinder romance early in the night. Because nothing says we found love in a hopeless place like Altoids and roses.

Security also dressed up for the occasion.

And believe it or not, people actually met.

But not everyone had a swipin’ good time at the game.

The Brooklyn Nets probably could help this poor guy out, though.
