I was debating whether this fit better in 'humor' or 'off topic'...Quote »Casino pays £5500 for Jesus and Mary snackAN internet casino has paid £5500 for a pretzel said to be shaped like the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. Golden Palace Casino swooped in about 30 seconds before bidding closed last night on the internet auction site eBay. The casino previously bought a partially eaten grilled cheese sandwich said to resemble Mary. The pretzel drew 56 bids. The sellers’ 12-year-old daughter said she discovered the Rold Gold honey-mustard-flavoured pretzel while snacking and watching television with her family on February 27. "I just thought it was a weird-shaped pretzel," said Crysta Naylor, of St Paul, Minnesota. "At first I thought it was an ‘S.’ I showed it to my mom, and she told me it looked like Mary and the baby Jesus. I looked at it again, and I could see it really did look like that." "What it says to me is that this pretzel is so much more than an edible item. We only paid $3.29 (£1.71) for the whole bag," her mother Machelle Naylor added. GoldenPalace.com has been an active eBay bidder. Last month, the casino paid about £2300 to an obese South Carolina man to tattoo advertising on his stomach. And in November, the firm shelled out £14,500 to a Florida woman for the grilled cheese sandwich thought to be embedded with the image of the Virgin Mary.Link to scotsman.com Weird, Quirky & Odd Stories -->http://news.scotsman.com/topic...02005

people will see and sell anything these days. Personally I dont see it, but hey everyones out to make a buck.

Well, they did give the money to their church so it's not liek they made the buck....personally I think that was a HUGE waste to give all of it to a church!!!! Then again I don't believe in all that so my opinion is biased.

Looks more like a wonky treble clef to me.Just never ceases to amaze me what kind of stupid crap people will pay for.
