5/21/2003: Prom wrecker

Prom season in the US means that thousands of 16-and 17-year-olds are facing a most ridiculous rite of passage and tradition that makes little sense. I always feel sorry for the kids rolling through restaurants in their best rented/worn-once outfits, looking and feeling all inappropriate.

In Racine, Wisconsin they have added to this foolishness by holding a post-prom celebration including a competition for who can arrive in the strangest mode of transportation. This couple showed in a tow truck/wrecker/etc with a swing attached. The caption doesn't say whether they won. But they do look happy and that's the important part.
