The mayor’s office issued an actual press release on this.
“I, Mayor Murray, pardon Braeburn the Tofurky,” the mayor proclaimed in the atrium of Seattle City Hall.
Braeburn the Tofurky will live out its natural life at the Rainier Valley Food Bank, the beneficiary of the food drive between Seattle City Council and the Mayor’s Office. Braeburn will be joined by his understudy, Honeycrisp.
Um…ok.
I'm a vegetarian who thinks the turkey pardon is dumb, but this is still dumber. http://t.co/HShJzlGNHS via @kate_sheppard
