Father Puts Ad in Paper to Find Wife for Son

A man's father took a full page ad in a Coeur d'Alene newspaper to find a wife for his son who lives in Salt Lake City. That man, Baron Brooks, says he had no idea his father was buying the ad until it was published. The ad cost almost $1,000 and his father says he won't answer any questions until after all the interviews are finished.

"What am I supposed to do? He already did it" Brooks said according to news reports. His father put some characteristics in the ad that he wants for his son like a shorter stature and conservative views. Brooks thinks his father liked his visit to Coeur d'Alene recently and that is why he put the ad in there.

Brooks is letting his father complete the interviews and thinks that it is "worth a shot" to find him a wife. He says, "Can't Hurt".
