LOGAN, Utah, Nov. 22 (UPI) — A Utah woman said she listed her husband for sale on Craigslist “just for fun” because of the amount of time he spends playing video games.
Alyse Baddley of Logan said her war veteran husband, Kyle, has spent so much time playing “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare,” she decided to list him for sale on the Web site, The (Logan) Herald Journal reported Monday.
“I didn’t see him much at all. So one day I told him: ‘I am going to post you on Craigslist, you know,'” Alyse said. “My mother-in-law said: ‘Do it!'”
Alyse said she received several responses within hours of posting “One husband to the highest bidder” on Craigslist.
“We didn’t think we would get any responses at all, but we’ve gotten so many,” Alyse said. “Someone even offered a blue bag of Skittles.”
Kyle, who said he finished the game within a few days, said he has enjoyed reading the responses with Alyse.
“I love my wife. She supported me when I got the game. We stayed until midnight to get the game when it first came out,” he said. “It’s just funny.”
