Well, you can see a whole host of previous popes for free if you just be a good person, then die.

I love that Hip-Hop Hooray pose.

Eh...I liked his old stuff better.

Know what's really fucked up? I've got a young woman who works in my office who attends the mid-day mass at St. Pat's every day & she does not get to go to the papal mass at St. Pat's.

It's times like this that make me think of the lyrics to Asylum by Crass.

Just when I thought Gawker was going to take the high road and ignore this whole stupid pope visit you had to talk about it didn't you?Who gives a shit?Most people are not catholics and the press is salivating over it 24/7,enough already.

This guy rocks.Check out my avatar for aesthetic proof of this.He's got a cool house, nice threads and his cult is really popular.All his bro's also have nice threads and they make really sweet wine and beer.His wheels are awesome and he's pretty hot too for 114.He's totally on the bro's before ho's buzz but hey, he answers to 'a higher power' man and his last film made $600 million bucks.He also digs freaky art so I'm gonna get all my friends to call me The Pope whenever I roll now.I mean check out where he sits people-have a look at this:

I'm using this as my avatar from now on.

@saltwatertaffy: Now I can't get the song out of my head: Heeeyyy-Hoooo!

I'm pretty sure the papacy has jumped the shark.

Word to God, son.

THE PASTORAL VISIT TO NEW YORK
HIS HOLINESS POPE BENEDICT XVI

OPENER: JAPANTHER

@Steverino: He's German- could we fit Tokio Hotel in there too?

What's a "street gallery?" Out with the Sabrett guy?

@Pope John Peeps II:

Is it possible that you have a better chance of seeing them if you are a bad person and then die?

@saxon212: You know, I'm a Lutheran and even though we've got that whole Reformation thing going for us, you might want to give the Pope and Gawker a pass. They're two bright spots in an increasingly dark world. Just sayin'.

@depardoo: Well, I guess it depends on which ones you want to see, and if you're asking Dante.

not to be all whatever, but couldn't you just watch his pope-mobile go down 5th avenue saturday afternoon, sans ticket? or you know, print this and risk getting arrested.

@saxon212: Yes, but his church was founded by Jesus H. Christ and 12 of his close personal friends.

@saxon212: If we have to talk about Heidi and Spencer then anything is fair game.

for the love of god, i can't stop going back to this post on account of that comical image. it's just begging for a lolpope caption.

@saltwatertaffy: I thought he was raising the roof.

@Steverino: I love ya for this. But saltwatertaffy is right - Tokio Hotel opens. There is no other way.

I'm going to guess when the cops arrest the bearers of these counterfeit ticket, that Bucky Turco will do jack shit to try and get them out of jail, pay for their legal representation, or renumerate the taxpayers for expenses certain to be incurred by law enforcement, the corrections system, the judicial system etc.

@saxon212: You stole the thoughts right out from inside of my head.

Why didn't they at least make the tickets up for front altar seats? Might as well be up there with Ed Koch.

@saltwatertaffy:@In Other News...: Heh. My mistake, good sirs (?).
