Sympatico / MSN News : Unusual News : Internet casino buys Virgin Mary pretzel for $10,600 US: "GoldenPalace.com has been an active eBay bidder.

Last month the casino paid $4,500 to an obese South Carolina man to tattoo advertising on his stomach. The casino also bid $35,099 to put its name on the FleetCenter in Boston for one day.

In December the casino paid $65,000 for a metal walking cane known as the 'ghost cane.'

In November the casino shelled out $28,000 to a Florida woman for the grilled-cheese sandwich thought to be embedded with the image of the Virgin Mary.

The casino put the cane and sandwich on a world tour and Machelle Naylor said she expects the same thing to happen with the pretzel.

The Naylors have decided to divide most of the $10,600 between their two churches, United Methodist of Alliance and United Methodist of St. Paul."
