STEINBACH, MB

Once the most prominent structure on the Steinbach skyline, in recent years the water tower has been surpassed in prominence by the SCU building, the curling rink, and numerous ever-expanding churches. In an effort to regain it’s prominence, city employees are working overtime today to drain the tower of drinking water and replace it with 450,000 gallons of vintage Dom Perignon.

“We’re not going to cheap out this time,” said a Steinbach recreational co-ordinator. “Only the best bubbly for Steinbach!”

By about 8 pm tonight, Steinbachers will be able to fill champagne flutes directly from their household taps, although with only about half a million gallons, the supply may be gone fast.

“We’re hoping people will refrain from showering until at least Tuesday,” said the rep.
