Sudan Man "marries" Goat

A Sudanese man has been forced to "marry" a goat.

The goats owner found the man with the goat and village elders decided that as the man had used the goat as a wife he should pay the dowry.

What strikes me in this story... "used the goat as a wife"..

Used it.

as a wife.

Yeah, this really cracked me up at first, but this is obviously not consensual sex. Poor goat! Who the hell would want to marry a human being? ;)

But doesn't that just mean he made the goat iron his shirts?

We had a similar situation in East Yorkshire a few years ago. An entire train full of passengers were witnesses at the court case. I don't think marriage was part of the sentence though.

PS. I was just checking that you had posted any really awful pictures ;)

I saw this on the BBC website and did a double take. Poor goat, imagine being stuck with such an awful man for life. Really when you think about it, he is a complete baaaastard. Sorry bad pun, couldn't resist it.
