… it takes religion

What happens when you combine a strongly religious community in the south and the unfortunate telephone area code of 666? Hilarity ensues, of course! Ok, maybe not too much hilarity, but some.The poor residents of Reeves, Louisiana have been saddled with the telephone prefix of the beast since the early 1960’s, and Christians in the town have been complaining since. Finally, the constant bellyaching paid off and for the next three months residents will have the option of changing their prefix to 749.
