Priceless...

Master Card Wedding

You gotta love this guy.

This is a true story about a recent wedding that took place in Sunninghill, a snob suburb in Johannesburg. It made the local newspaper; even Noleen mentioned it on her TV talk show.


It was a huge wedding with about 300 guests. After the wedding, at the reception, the groom got up on stage with a microphone to talk to the
crowd.
He said he wanted to thank everyone for coming, many from long distances, to support them at their wedding. He especially wanted to thank the bride's family & to especially thank his new father-in-law for providing such a lavish reception.

As a token of his deep appreciation he said he wanted to give everyone a special gift just from him. So taped to the bottom of everyone's chair, including the wedding party, were an envelope. He stressed that this was his gift to everyone, & asked them to open their envelopes.

Inside each manila envelope was an 8 x 10 glossy of his bride having sex with his best friend, the best man.
The groom had gotten suspicious of them weeks earlier & had hired a private detective to tail them.

After just standing there, just watching the guests' reactions for a couple of minutes, he turned to his best man & said, "F--- you!" Then he turned to his bride & said, "F--- you!"
Then he turned back to the dumbfounded crowd & said, "I'm outta here." He had the marriage annulled first thing the following morning.

While most people would have canceled the Wedding immediately after finding out about the affair, this guy goes through with the charade, as if nothing
were wrong. His revenge--making the bride' s parents pay over R100,000 for a 300+ guest wedding & reception, & best of all, trashing the bride's & his best
man's reputations in front of 300+ friends & family members.

This guy has balls the size of church bells.

Do you think we might get a Master Card "PRICELESS" commercial out of this?

Elegant wedding reception for 300 family members & friends:

R45,000...

Wedding photographs commemorating the Occasion:

R6,000...

Deluxe two week honeymoon accommodations in Mauritius :

R55,500...

The look on everyone's face when they see the 8x10 glossy of the bride humping his best man:

Priceless...

There are some things money can't buy,

for everything else there's

MASTERCARD!

I had heard that story, didn't know the location; just that it was true.

Hoist a tankard in his honor: brass balls and integrity, great combination!

Funny how these things keep coming up and we know somebody who knows somebody who is a mate of the guy who was there more or less! Makes you wonder is it actually true or is it something we would all like to see and hear? Doesn't detract from the story and it could happen; and probably did somewhere, nearly like that!

I still like it!!
