So in Western PA you have to give a dowry when you're cuckolded?

I am surprised that I knew nothing of this.

I found an msnbc article, but it doesn't list the names of the recipients.

AP Story
Quote:
The victim received a package containing a cow's head with a puncture wound in its skull on June 1, 2006.
Jason Michael Fife "understands that in a civilized society a person cannot send a severed cow's head to anybody," said his defense lawyer, Henry Hilles

Fife and his wife, who have a young child, later reconciled, Hilles said.

Judge: Mr Fife, is this the first time you've mailed an animal's cranium to a spouse?

Fife: Yes sir.

Judge: OK, you're sentenced to 50 hours of picking trash out of the ditch. Court is adjourned.

Mrs Fife: I love you, you cowhead sending freakazoid.

Mr Fife: I love you too, you cheating witch.

Baby Fife: I don't stand a chance.
