My new favorite thing in the world: Iowa girl takes Tim Tebow cutout to prom

Sioux City Journal columnist Tim Gallagher uncovered this gem in Kingsley, Iowa, in this morning’s paper:

Kingsley-Pierson High School senior Rachel Bird, right, is shown Saturday with her “date” before the school prom in Kingsley, Iowa. When her favorite football player, Tim Tebow, didn’t respond to her invitation to prom, Bird made a life-sized cardboard cutout of him and completed the prom grand march with it. Her biggest regret, she said, was she didn’t make a prom dress out of a New York Jets jersey, where the NFL quarterback will play next season.

About Daniel P. Finney

A misanthrope, iconoclast and general grouch since the late 1980s, Daniel P. Finney has been a professional paragraph stacker since 1993. He reports. He writes. He blogs. He tweets. He beats deadlines. He amuses (himself, at least.) He informs. He adapts. He keeps moving forward. He eschews gatherings. The highlights of his week are Sunday chicken wings, new comics Wednesday and naps during televised sporting events. He does not wonder if there is a player to be named later in his life and spends most of his waking hours desperately trying to be left alone.
