I’ll be right back…honest!

Only if he says “I do” first.

Don’t stop for beer on the way back in.

Get some change for the honeymoon.

Till debt do us part…

Must be Vagas ?

Changed your mind did ya?

You just want to smoke and fart and stuff. Go ahead. They’ll be happy to wait.

He really just wants to make sure he left a window down, so his mother would have some fresh air. He doesn’t want to start the honeymoon with his mother being angry.

It’s not The Great Escape, but it will do.

Meanwhile, leave your car keys with the Padre. He has seen this trick before!

Looks like you had better float a loan and fly one way to Aruba.

Considering the bride’s appearance, he shoulda stopped at ‘run out.’

Use your app.

Run out … and keep on running, pal.

Took him a while to come up with an excuse to not go through with it.

I literally got a parking ticket during my wedding rehearsal many years ago. But I was in a different country I just ignored it.

Wish I had thought of that

NO WAY! NOPE. NOT A CHANCE! You can run down to the corner store for cigarettes and never come back later, like everyone else!

Your timing should have been better. Or maybe not.

Yeah, by the look of her, keep running.

Pick up a pack of smokes

Everyone remembers Frank Sinatra’s romantic rendering of “Three Coins in the Meter.”

Sure, at this point she’ll take … well, she’s come this far, she either knows you and will take you as you are, or she’s just plain desperate and will take any man who will stand up there and say “I do.”

I had to park at a meter when my wife was in labor with our second child. I’m lucky that he was not born when I was out there feeding it.

hm… this is gonna last long….

And away he goes…

Excuse me, my feet are getting real cold.

Wait a minute, we parked in a parking lot.

Must be for his getaway car!

Give her a moment — she’s sure to tell him, “If you don’t come back, I’ll find you and I’ll kill you.”

Never to return….
