HEAVEN—In an unexpected celestial upset, beloved Bendigo Mayor Rod Fyffe triumphed over Saint Peter to become Heaven’s new mayor. Fyffe, whose recent passing left Bendigo in mourning, wasted no time ascending to heavenly office.
“He campaigned on better cloud infrastructure and more harps for everyone,” said one angelic voter. Saint Peter, initially confident, was left stunned as Fyffe’s grassroots (or cloud-roots) support surged.
“He’s got big plans for Paradise,” said Gabriel, Heaven’s chief PR angel. “We’re excited for the Fyffe era.”
Saint Peter is back at Pearly Gates and reportedly considering running for Deputy Mayor.
