Chuck Norris Leads Voting For Naming of Budapest Bridge

A cool true fact about Chuck Norris: the Hungarians want to name a bridge in his martial-arts honor.

If Hungarian voters have their way then Budapest could be the home for the first bridge in the world to be named after Chuck Norris, the high-kicking star of countless action movies.

The Ministry of Economy and Transport could well be kicking itself after the star become an early front runner in an online poll organised by the ministry to name a new bridge across the Danube.

Almost 9000 people have voted for the "Chuck Norris Bridge".

The name was suggested by somebody who said that it would be a good idea because "there is no such bridge in the world and Hungary would be the first".

The most unbelievable part of this story? That there aren't literally dozens of bridges, dams, and major cities named after Chuck Norris already.

Thanks to Karl.
