Good News: Five Besties Have Been To All 51 Super Bowls

On Sunday, the 52nd Super Bowl will be played in Minneapolis, Minnesota — and in the stands will be five friends who, amazingly, have attended each and every Super Bowl together through the years.

Calling themselves the “Super Bowl Five,” this group of longtime friends have been through a lot of sports history, as well as a lot of life.

They’ve moved all over the country, but each year, they find a way to gather at the site of the big game.

Back in 1967, they paid $10 for tickets to Super Bowl I. Tickets for this Sunday’s game are going for an average of $3,700.

While they are getting older, all in their late-70s and early-80s, the men plan to keep the streak alive as long as they can.

Interesting People #41: Miss Maryland’s Outstanding Teen 2017

I met Miss Maryland’s Outstanding Teen 2017, Chloe Wildman during our sister station’s Christmas Cash 4 Kids Radiothon. She brought incredible energy to the radio station, and she let me wear her crown. We chatted about how she got into the pageant scene, her mental health platform, and her love of puns.

This interview is a bit of an emotional roller coaster. We get about a 50/50 mix of deep conversation and uncontrollable microphone spiking laugher!

I hope you enjoy Chloe’s story.
