Saudia Shuler almost sent her son Johnny Eden Jr. to the middle-eastern country but settled for splurging for his prom on three tons of sand, exotic cars, custom-made gowns for his dates — yes, he had three dates — and also: a camel.

Shuler spent $25,000 on the camel, which appeared in photos along with the sand. In her Instagram post with a pic of the camel she wrote: “The real deal for my son.”

Shuler has fought cancer and suffered a stroke in recent years, making the occasion all the more momentous.

A Rolls Royce and a Lamborghini also made the event one surely to remember for Eden Jr.
