Streaker Who Ran Through Indiana Baseball Game Offered Contract
A streaker carrying an American flag recently ran across the field at a Dubois County Bombers game, and now he's been offered to play for the team. I've only ever been to one baseball game in my entire life. It was at Busch Stadium on Wednesday, July 29, 2015, when the Cardinals went up against the Cincinnati Reds. I honestly don't remember much from the game itself, because that evening just so happened to be "Star Wars Night" at the stadium. While I was busy taking pictures with cosplayers, browsing fan art, and talking about Star Wars Episode VII with my buddies, others were actually watching the game. That said, I had a great time, and it was a memorable experience.

Yelp Elites Claim This is the Best Fried Chicken in Indiana
The battle for the best fried chicken title continues in Indiana as Yelp Elites unveil their new favorite. Growing up in southern Indiana, fried chicken was a staple at my house.
