This is cute.
High School seniors and best friends, Charlie Ferrusi and Timmy Howard made history by winning Prom King and Queen.
The Register-Star reports:
“It’s a really big step for Hudson but also for the gay community in general,” Howard said Wednesday. “The students also had the support of the school. The principal made it clear, he would not interfere in the process. The only hard part for the boys was deciding who would be King or Queen.
To have this happen in our city is pretty exciting.” Ferrusi said he and Howard started thinking about running about a month ago. While there were some students who were in opposition to their idea many more approved and the boys decided to go for it.
By prom night the overwhelming majority of students cast their votes in the open ballot race. They won by such a wide margin the school didn’t crown any runners up.
“First of all it’s Hudson High School,” said Ferrusi. “For me to win king was crazy. For Timmy to win queen was insane. We both researched it online and never found any story of two gay guys winning both king and queen.”

And after the story about the girl who couldn't bring her girlfriend to the prom and all the ensuing shenanigans, this story is totally, completely awesome!!
