>MASTERCARD WEDDING
>
>You gotta love this guy...This is a true story about a recent wedding that
>took place at Clemson University. It was in the local newspaper and even
>Jay Leno mentioned it.
>
>
>
>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 and his family and to 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, was an envelope. He said this was his gift to
>everyone, and asked them to open their envelope. Inside each manila
>envelope was an 8x10 glossy of his bride having sex with the best man. The
>groom had gotten suspicious of them weeks earlier and 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 the dumbfounded
>crowd and said, 'I'm outta here.' He had the marriage annulled first thing
>in the 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 $32,000 for
>a 300 guest wedding and reception, and best of all, trashing the bride's
>and best man's reputations in front of 300 friends and family members. This
>guy has balls the size of church bells.
>
>Do you think we might get a MasterCard 'priceless' commercial out of this:
>Elegant wedding and reception for 300 family members and
>friends.........$32,000.
>Wedding photographs commemorating the occasion.....$3,000.
>Deluxe two week honeymoon accommodations in Maui....$8,500.
>The look on everyone's face when they see the 8x10 glossy of the bride
>humping the best man... Priceless.
>
>
>There are some things money can't buy, for everything else there's
>MASTERCARD! GOOD JOB DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: U have to read this...Mastercard Bride

I heard this one. There are other versions where the bride slept with someone else and the groom and best man leave together to enjoy a vacation that would have been the honeymoon.

I've heard variations of this story for years, I wonder how many of them are actually true.
