Teen's proud to take his Deere to the prom

NEW ROCKFORD, N.D. —Forget taking a limousine to the prom. One high school senior drove his date in a 1992 green John Deere 8760 tractor.

"A few people made bets with me that Iwouldn't do it," said Levi Rue, a senior at New Rockford-Sheyenne High SchooL

"I guess I won them." Rue's date wasn't sure, worried about her dress getting dirty. But after Rue showed her pictures of the tractor and promised to make sure it was immaculate, she agreed. "I deaned it up pretty good," he said.

Bachmeier wore a lime green prom dress that nearly matched the tractor.
