Woman Gives Birth at Wedding Party
2003-09-06
JEDDAH — A 39-year-old Saudi woman delivered a baby at a wedding hall in the summer resort of Taif where she had come to attend the marriage of a friend, a report said yesterday. The woman insisted on joining the wedding party although she was in the ninth month of her pregnancy, the report said. “She suddenly went into labor and the mother of the bride took her to a room inside the hall where she delivered the baby with the assistance of a doctor and nurses.”
Hard to top that for pure entertainment value...

#4  Actually, it's interesting that this made the news. Ten years or so back, it never would have happened (the reporting, I mean).

#3  "Then they stoned the mother and child to death for interrupting the wedding ceremony so rudely."

Wouldn't suprise me at all.

#2  A wedding and a birth at the same time? How many RPGs did they fire off to celebrate this? Is there anything left standing in Jeddah?
