The Scoop for July 8, 2019

Sometimes when a celebrity throws out the first pitch at a ball game, it doesn’t go so great. But for Jerry Seinfeld, he did great. As a matter of fact, Jerry felt so good about his efforts, after he threw out the first pitch, he threw out this challenge.
“I challenge another 65 year old sit com star, to hum that in there, right over the plate.”
I mean, that’s a pretty specific challenge. Who else is there? Peg from Married With Children? She’d probably do great.


Stevie Wonder had quite the announcement during a show this weekend…
“I’m going to have a kidney transplant.”
Yeah. A kidney transplant. Not the announcement you think you’re going to get at a concert. Maybe new music, maybe his own line of bourbon, or signiture sun glasses. But kidney transplant. Best of luck Stevie.


So Ghost Adventurer Zak Bagans has his own Haunted Museum filled to the brim with haunted items. And I know, it seems like a bit of a gimick, guy with a haunted TV show has a Haunted Museum, but he made a believer out of Vanilla Ice, because he had a ghost blow on his neck. And no, Vanilla isn’t going to give it another shot and head back in there, and do some Scooby Doo investigatin’. Quote, “I’m not going back in that room.”
Pfft. Vanilla Ice. More like Vanilla Chicken.
