WOMAN MARRIES CAN OF MR. PIBB | Weekly World News

LIVINGSTON, Mont. ? ?I now pronounce you, Can and Wife.?

Residents of a small Montana town were shocked today to see the public?marriage of local resident Kim Parrot and a can of Mr. Pibb.

Understandably, the first response many had, was?wondering why an?attractive, 20-something woman would make this decision. For others,?the question was something more pointed: ?Didn?t they stop calling it?Mr. Pibb years ago??

?Yes, you could call my husband ?a little vintage,?? Parrot said, her?arm wrapped around her newly announced husband. ?He has some years on?him ? and even a little rust ? but trust me when I tell you that Mr.?Pibb is Mr. Right.?

Parrot is hardly the first to try to marry an object instead of a?human being, but what makes the case unique is that Livingston is the?only city in the U.S. to allow marriages to beverages. A law?established shortly before Prohibition, the national ban of alcohol?from the 1920s, gave officials in the town the ability to wed their?distilleries. This protected their operations from being shut down,?thus giving them the ability to keep producing illegal drinks. Decades?later, many are ignorant of the law ? but not Parrot

?It?s a carbonation abomination!? said Gus ?Bumpy? Bumperton, a?Livingston grocery store owner. ?Who ever heard of such a thing? This?needs to be fixed now.?

Until officials take action, Parrot plans to move on with her marriage?to the soda can as the two are heading out to a honeymoon to Las?Vegas.

?We plan to shake things up a bit,? Parrot said, pointing to the Mr.?Pibb can. ?But not too much!?
