Chillest Dude Ever Gets Robbed at Gunpoint, Continues Eating Wings

Oh nothing to see here, just a gun pointed at a guy’s head while he continues to eat wings. The level of cool and calm that is required to do this is astounding. The fact that he didn’t throw those wings up and run away is astounding.

So remember the next time someone points a gun at your dome, just continue to smile and eat.

Man Makes Bomb Threat Over Lack of McDonald’s Dipping Sauce

Let’s wait until we judge this man from Iowa who called in a bomb threat after a local McDonald’s failed to include dipping sauce with his McNugget order. If it was buffalo sauce he was looking for, we’re not saying he’s justified, but his reasons would suddenly make more sense. According to a criminal complaint, police called Golwitzer at the phone number used to make the threat. Police said he admitted over the phone, and later in an interview at the police department, that he made the threats.

Golwitzer has been charged with a Class D felony: false report of explosive or incendiary device.

Valid text entries received during the thirty (30) minute period after each cue-to-text sounder (as determined by the Station in its sole discretion) will be entered into the Grand Prize drawing. Time Delay Between Over-the-Air Analog Signal and Internet Broadcast: Due to the time delay that exists between the Station’s analog over-the-air signal and the Station’s online webcast, listeners who listen to the Station online may hear the cue to text later than listeners listening to the Station’s analog over-the-air signal.

Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same telephone number. Any attempt by any participant to submit more than one (1) entry by using multiple/different telephone phone numbers, identities, or any other methods will void that participant from further participation in the Contest.  By submission of a text message entry in this Contest, entrants hereby expressly consent to the receipt of a confirmatory bounce-back message related to this Contest.

Station is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, inappropriate or misdirected registrations, all of which will be disqualified.  In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the participant.

R.I.P. Lake Shore Drive: Chicago Spends Time, Energy Doing Something That No One Asked For

On Friday, it became official, LSD is no more. Lake Shore Drive was officially renamed Jean Baptiste Pointe DuSable Lake Shore Drive, which really rolls off the tongue. The move honors Jean Baptistie Pointe DuSable, who is credited as one of the founders of Chicago, which is great, but this is not the move to honor DuSable. This is something that no one asked for. This is a bizarre way to alter something legendary in the city.

Next time someone needs directions, just be sure to tell them to take the JBPDLSD South. They’ll know exactly what you mean.

The Humboldt Park Gators, named after the infamous Humboldt Park-based Chance the Snapper, are one of only a handful of all-girls baseball teams in the country who test their talents against all-boys squads. Their coach tells them before every game “quit or get better” and the girls, time after time, respond to that challenge.

The Gators now gear up to play in the Baseball For All National Girls tournament July 18th in Maryland. They are raising funds to help cover registration fees. To Donate, you can go to their Facebook page.
