Two heterosexual men have tied the knot on Friday morning under New Zealand's liberal marriage laws.
Marrying not for love, but for Rugby World Cup Tickets, the two men from Dunedin in the South Island of New Zealand officially said 'I do' in front of 60 family and friends.
The ceremony was live broadcast by Edge Radio, who's 'I Love You, Man' competition was launched earlier this year in a bid to find two straight men willing to wed for the sought after tickets.
'It's official folks, Travis and Matt have just said 'I do'! Congrats to the happy couple!,' the station tweeted.
Travis McIntosh, 23, and Matt McCormick, 24, won the 'bromantic' radio contest in August and are over the moon- not for a life together, but for the opportunity to head to the Rugby World Cup in England next year.
While some gay rights groups in New Zealand have voiced objections to the nuptials, the pair are content with their reasons for the wedding.

So a couple of bachelors could in theory get hitched and then go on to get all kinds of gov bennies that married folks get. They could even have some live in maids....
Hillarity...
Imagine the outrage:
“They’re making a mockery of gay ‘marriage’!”
Should have been video’d and posted on You Tube wonder how many hits this would get?
When Western Civilization, in all its decadence, started down this slippery slope, where it was leading was obvious.
Some people have to urinate on a live wire to find out what happens.
Some don't.
“So gays don’t like their “weddings” mocked? How about that!”
LOL! Yes, they like to be the mockers.
I am willing to bet that within a few years the vast majority of same sex “marriages” will be between 2 heterosexual males or 2 heterosexual females for tax reasons, health insurance, dry cleaning discounts, etc.
There are very few homosexuals out there and most have no desire to be “married”.
On the other hand there are tens of millions of single adults out there who could benefit from sham marriages.
Now that the “no fault” divorce supporters and homosexualists have totally destroyed the sanctity of legal marriage, I think friends of the same sex will start “marrying” for financial benefits. Since “marriage” is now a big joke, heterosexuals will go along with the joke and marry for convenience and it will be easier when it is with a “partner” that you know there will never be sexual attraction or tension with.
The next realistic step is having a New Hampshire young man (14) get permission by the parent to marry a 50-year old gay guy. After that...having a first cousin get hitched (male-to-male or female-to-female).
Well, marriage for love is pretty much a new fangled thing. Marriage as a business arrangement on the other hand has long been the norm.
Arrogance and irony ...
I really do not understand their objections. They wanted the law to allow 2 men to marry and that is what this is.
Do they really want the law to restrict such marriages? Do they really want to demand that government go into bedrooms and make sure they are sodomizing each other?
seriously?
If a student walked into an office to apply for a “gay scholarship”, how would he “prove” he was “gay”?
This question exposes exactly what homosexuality is - it’s a behavior, not a state of being.
Yes. Agreed.
I first thought this was a good way to mock the absurdity of "same-sex marriage," but then I read the entire article. The whole premise of this rugby ticket-induced sham marriage mocks traditional, holy marriage. Period.
And all the attendees think it's just fun and games.
Pathetic.
The sodomites are pretty passionate when it comes to their seats.
Goes back to something I’ve been saying for years .... Exactly how do we know that people claiming to be gay for better consideration rather than actually being gay? What is the gay test?
Can they PROVE they’re heterosexual ? Do they have the heterosexual gene ???
They must be subjected to “the test”!

This is what one looks like after a lifetime of a “business arrangement”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJCHHPX6WQcHe is almost two years younger than I am and appears to have about one tenth the physical vigor, if that even. I suspect that I could walk farther carrying a hundred pounds than he could walk with no load other than his own body and he probably weighs seventy pounds less than I do but the difference is mainly muscle, I am NOT fat. He does appear to have retained somewhat more of his white hair than I have though, mine is just as white but a little more receding in front. We are nearly the same height, I am probably a little taller but not enough to matter.
No one ever told me that I look like Bill Clinton but seven or eight years ago when I had a higher body fat percentage and my face was fuller I was constantly being told that I looked like a Kennedy, namely the guy who, “Beat up Paul Newman in that movie.”

Lighten up, Francis. This just could be how we win. Make the people who foisted this SSM nonsense upon us pay for as many sham marriage benefits as possible and we just might see them change their tune.
