Mayor Funkhouser likes 'man dates'

I'd like to say that I'm making this up, but I can't. Mayor Mark Funkhouser has declared Thursday, March 19, "Man Date Day" in Kansas City. Don't believe me? Click on the proclamation below. It's all part of the promotion for Paul Rudd's new flick, I Love You, Man. I'm not sure I can top the press release:

To celebrate National Man Date Day, a party will be held at Jerry's Bait Shop/Lee's Summit.  Men are encouraged to come out and just be boys for the night. A "man cave" contest will be held in which contestants will have five minutes to create the best "man cave" with assorted items. A burping contest and a secret handshake contest will be held for men to win I LOVE YOU, MAN prize packs. Additionally, there will be no cover charge for the men, and Jerry's Bait Shop will create I LOVE YOU, MAN drink specials.
Actually, Paul Rudd seems more like a Dave's Stagecoach guy.

Actually, Funk chucking this unoriginal Hollywoodization to Lee�s Summit clearly makes him a better KCMO mayor.

Plus, I bet Squit could win that man cave contest in 2 minutes flat, and would DOMINATE the burping contest.

OK sorry. He has nothing to do with Lee's Summit (the population of the Summit is relived)
Now on to the proclamation. It made me uncomfortable.

Yet it is in Lee's Summit. Is Funk mayor there as well? They can keep him.
