Forums - General - Only in America. Halo 3 gamer is elected Mayor

Coca-Cola on 29 May 2008

19 year old freshmen, who plays Halo 3 becomes a Mayor of Muskogee, Oklahoma.

 

Beat a 70 year old man for the job.

Good luck - and please no new taxes on games.

You only have to be 18 to run for mayor. I mean, playing Halo 3 is lame and all, but it's definitely cooler than being 70, since 70 year old folks grew up in the 40's and didn't really notice the millennium change. I'd have to know more about either of the candidates before I could pass judgment on their platforms.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

im pretty sure u have to be at least 35



That Guy on 29 May 2008

it seems odd that the only person who wanted to be mayor besides a 70 year old incumbant was a 19 year old kid.

This must a pretty small town.

And yes, the minimum age of the president is 35. This came from the constitution, I believe. Back then, being 35 years was considered pretty old, since the average life expectancy was around 50 or 60.
