Hero Kids, Generous High Schoolers, And Weird World Records
- Two 12 and 13-year-old boys in Rhode Island recently saved three dogs from a fire. They heard their neighbor’s smoke detectors going off . . . realized no one was home . . . got the door code from another neighbor . . . and got the dogs out.
It turned out one of the dogs had jumped up and turned on a burner to the stove while a wood cutting board on top of it. The cutting board is toast, but the house survived.
- A guy from Utah broke a record last week for fastest marathon while dressed as a vegetable. He wore a carrot costume . . . finished in 2 hours and 44 minutes . . . and raised a bunch for the Release Recovery Foundation, which deals with addiction issues.
- A high school football team near Pittsburgh is in the news after their weightlifting session got cancelled by severe weather last week . . . so they went out and shoveled people’s driveways instead.
The coach of Bethel Park High sent out a message telling his team to shovel the driveway of someone who’s elderly or disabled, and to not accept any money for it. Turns out it’s actually a tradition for the team that dates back more than 20 years.
