NEWS OF THE WEIRD
Orkin put out its annual list of the most rat-infested cities in America, and Chicago is #1 for the seventh year in a row. The rest of the top five are L.A., New York, D.C., and San Francisco.
There’s a photo of a couple wearing raunchy, sexually-suggestive shirts at Disney World, and people want Disney to ban stuff like this. But Disney already blocks people from wearing inappropriate clothing. The couple had hoodies around their waists, so the shirts may have been covered when they went in.
A 20-year-old woman in Florida is facing charges for domestic battery . . . after hurling two tacos across the house and hitting her mom in the head with them. Ironically, they’d been arguing about cleaning the place.

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups with Crushed Up Potato Chips Have Arrived
Reese’s is unleashing a new peanut butter cup that comes with crushed-up POTATO CHIPS inside.
A photo of them leaked online last year, so we knew they were coming. Or, we hoped the rumors were real at least. But now it’s official.
It sounds like they’re only doing them as a “Big Cup.” That’s their king size version that’s bigger and thicker than a normal Reese’s. And the chips look like generic Ruffles.
They should be rolling them out to stores nationwide soon. So look for them in the candy aisle.
This isn’t the first time they’ve done something like this. Last year, they started selling a Big Cup Reese’s with crushed-up pretzels mixed in.
That’s fairly close to what’s in a Take 5 bar though. So a peanut butter cup with crushed-up potato chips is a little more revolutionary.
A Guy Found a Loophole in an Amusement Park’s Annual Pass, and Got Free Meals Every Day for a Year
This right here is how you become a legend: “Mel Magazine” just did a big profile on a guy in California who found a loophole in an amusement park’s annual membership . . . and used it to get free meals EVERY DAY.
His name is Dylan, and he’s 33 now. Back in 2014, he landed an internship at an engineering firm in Santa Clarita, California, where Six Flags Magic Mountain is located. So he looked into an annual pass and found a crazy promo they were running for food.
For a one-time fee of $150, he could get two FREE meals every time he went to the park. And it was unlimited, so he could do it every single day.
Now, obviously an average person would never do that. But Dylan’s office was five minutes from the park. So he paid the $150 and took FULL advantage.
The only downside was he had to eat carnival food every day, so it wasn’t healthy. When he first signed up, his only choices were a burger and fries . . . pizza and breadsticks . . . or a lame sandwich that wasn’t any good.
But it was free food, and he was just out of college. So he went twice a day, EVERY day for lunch and dinner. And he did that for an entire year. But it didn’t stop there . . .
He kept re-upping his membership . . . and he’s continued to do it for the last SEVEN YEARS.
He stopped going every day, but he still goes a lot. He eventually scaled back and only went three or four times a week. Usually for lunch.
They eventually added more menu options, so it got even better. They do a pretty good steak sandwich, plus seasonal items like a “Thanksgiving” turkey dog topped with cranberry sauce and stuffing. A few are even somewhat healthy, like a vegan-friendly black bean burger.
But here’s the craziest part: Finding the loophole has saved him an INSANE amount of money. For the first year, he says he never bought groceries. And because of all those free lunches and dinners, he’s managed to pay down his student loans . . . get married . . . and buy a HOUSE.
