In 2007, someone is going to be very happy in Oklahoma. I know, you're thinking, why would anyone in Oklahoma be happy? Well, I'll tell ya. In 1957, a brand new Plymouth Belvedere was entombed in a concrete vault, along with 5 gallons of gas and a case of beer. In 2007, it will be exhumed, and given away. Back in 57, they held a contest to see who would win the car, and the winner, to be announced in 07, will be the person (or that person's heirs) who most closely guessed how many people would be living in Tulsa in 2007. The gasoline was buried with the car, just in case combustion engines were obsolete in 2007. Isn't that cute?
