What a week! We said goodbye to winter and hello spring. Here’s some of what happened this week on the radio.
- A woman’s pizza delivery was delayed because a giant alligator was in her driveway when the pizza arrived. The pizza was brought to the door by law enforcement who were trying to wrangle the ‘gator.
- Thieves in Ireland stole a giant safe from an insurance office. The owner of the safe said it was empty and they had been trying to get rid of the safe for months. Police are still looking for the perps.
- The astronauts finally came home!
- A hotel cleaning crew in Michigan found an alligator in a hotel room when they were cleaning. The owner of “Wally” said he thought Wally had ran off before he checked out. He didn’t realize it was hiding under the bed.
- Surgeons removed a chopstick from a guys stomach. He had accidentally swallowed it a few months earlier when he was doing a ‘trick’ at a party. He thought he could pass it “naturally”.
- According to baby name experts, they say the name Gary is disappearing. It’s #674 on the list of baby names.
- Played tons of great music!
Have a fantastic weekend, let’s do it again next week.
