Over the weekend, Pope Benedict XVI gave his blessing to a Ferrari owners' club, as 45 of the cars rolled into St. Peter's Square for Sunday mass. Following his noontime remarks, the pontiff mentioned the Easy Rider World Association Ferrari club by name, saying "we see them and soon we'll hear them." The Ferraris answered back, "nice Mercedes, pop" and were immediately excommunicated.
