From Smith of KYSS-FM s Smith and Nelson:
Let me take you back to, oh, roughly 2015 or 2016. I m living in New York when
Hamilton becomes the biggest smash Broadway musical - it s winning Tony Awards, it s selling out every night, and everyone is getting obsessed with it. So I figure, alright, I ll check it out. I downloaded the soundtrack and listened to it on a long car ride. And then I listened to it again. And then I listened to it again.
I was pretty obsessed with
Hamilton for about a year straight. The soundtrack completely blew me away and I became a huge fan of just about everybody involved. I tried and tried to get tickets to the show while I was living in New York, but it wasn t happening - they were so expensive and they sold out so fast.
And that’s the bottom line, ‘cuz Stone Cold said so.
With Wrestlemania 37 coming up this weekend, the guys at sportsinsider.com decided to do a little digging to figure out which professional wrestler people in each state considered to be the greatest of all-time.
When all was said and done, a couple of Texas boys topped the list. The Undertaker, whose real name is Mark Callahan hails from Houston and he dominated the list with 17 states saying he is the best of all-time.

Next on the list was the pride of Victoria, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, born Steven Anderson. Both Texas and Oklahoma claim Stone Cold is the best of all-time.
What would you do if you won the lottery? Spend it on that vacation you ve been dreaming of for years? Save it so you can buy your dream home? Invest it so you can make more money than you could ever dream of? Well, usually that s all winning the lottery ever is.just a dream. For one Waterloo woman that dream became a reality this week.
Tina Rodgers thought she won a tiny prize on her scratch off ticket, but she actually won $100,000.
How big of a difference do a few zeroes really make? At first I thought it was just $1,000, because I had contacts in and they were dry, Rodgers explained to Iowa Lottery officials.
