Tyson admitted that aside from boxing, performing on Broadway is something he’s always wanted to sink his teeth into. -A town in Ireland just broke the Guinness world record for most nuns in one place. The town was flooded with so many virgins you would have thought it was Comic-con. -A sports bar in Staten Island recently installed a crane machine game where you patrons can play to win a lobster for dinner.

Apparently the smell was so bad that even Pangaea couldn’t be around it anymore. -A man in Pennsylvania was given a DUI after he tried to high five the officer that told him to turn his lights on. The officer kindly reminded the man that in prison inmates don't do high fives...they just pound each other. -Chris Christie has stated that he may be ready to run for President in 2016. In four years time, the governor is certain that he’ll find a big enough platform to stand on. -A college student in Kansas found a bag of cocaine in a textbook that she ordered from Amazon.com.
