| Sonali Rodrigues & James Tate |
Back on Friday, May 6th, Shelton (CT) High School senior James Tate got in trouble as he asked a girl to go with him to the prom.
You may have heard by now that he taped large cardboard letters to the side of the High School's exterior wall, spelling out a very large invitation for a certain girl to be his prom date.
The invite involved trespassing and some danger. The punishment was in-school suspension and since the infraction occurred after April first, young James gets banned from the prom.
The story goes viral. The kid gets interviewed by Matt Lauer on NBC's Today Show. Pressure comes in from all directions, from all over the world, including a member of the Connecticut State Legislature!
Headmaster, Dr. Beth Smith reconsiders...James and Sonali will be going to the prom.
Any guesses as to where the "smart money" should go for bets on King & Queen at this year's Shelton HS Prom?

Let's stop right here. The prom is June 4 and it's May 6th and the kid doesn't have a date. He decides to go for broke and ask a girl, for all the school to see! She, Sonali Rodrigues, accepts...mission accomplished...well, kinda.
