A local radio station show, The Donkey Show, recently came out of the woodwork with a pretzel that (some say) looks like he Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. The man who found the pretzel used to come into the 7-11 I worked at, and it likely the cheesiest mother fucker I had ever encountered in my life. A really nice guy, but corny as hell and would always have some semi-funny comeback to every greeting I would give him. Anyways...
It was on Ebay, and reached over 2 MILLION dollars before Ebay took it down for violating their no-food policy. The 2 million dollar bid was legit, by a business owner that wanted publicity and had been in contact with the station.
The pretzel is back on Ebay - currently a little over $5,000 - hopefully it will get back up to the big bucks it was at yesterday.
