Prom King is missing a part.

I was reading our local weekly paper, and noticed a letter to the editor commenting about the picture of the High School Prom King and Queen.

It mentioned that the picture was in last weeks paper, so I dug it out of the pile of old papers and found this.

Curiosity, since there was no information about why the Prom King was female, I went searching and found this.

PS. No the letter to the editor wasn't positive.
