Lock Bridge

So there are like a bazillon bridges in Paris. This one bridge, and it's kinda ugly, has a very unique local thing happening. Apparently this has only become popular in the last year or so. As you can see by the photos there are locks locked to the bridge. What happens is, lovers new and old come to the bridge to "lock in" their love and then they throw the key in the Seine.

Freaking cool!

Real quick...who's the dumb ass that put the pad lock one on there??? Seriously...did they throw the combo in the Seine?
