The nearest KFC was only 435 miles away

But that was not going to stop Mike from keeping their tradition alive for the 15th year of their marriage.

Instead, Mike and one of his sons looked up the nearest KFC and decided to drive there.

It was only 435 miles away..

Once they finally arrived, the devoted hubby ordered 15 buckets of chicken.

He told CBC: ‘When I ordered 15 buckets, they said: "Uh, it might take a little while". I said: "No problem" so they cooked it up right away.'

Despite the 870 mile drive there and back and $600 (£410) in petrol and food, Mike says it was ‘worth every penny'.

He added that they have to ‘keep the traditions alive' so ‘why stop now?'
