Bad News with Happy Music

Daily Check-Ins

Just two more sleeps until Christmas! Oh, and Happy Festivus for the rest of us!



Brian returned from vacation today & we started things off with news about the La Crosse Mayoral race, an officer-involved shooting in Chippewa County, an updated on the WI school shooting from last week, and sad news about a couple of retired K9 Officers.



In sports, we recapped this weekend's NFL action & took a look ahead to tonight's MNF matchup between the Saints & Packers. Also, the Badgers got a nice win before the holiday break, an updated look at the College Football Playoff bracket after a few games this past weekend, and Tiger Woods' son is the real deal!



We talked about a VERY festive pub in England, and took a look at some of Google's year-end search trends.



Great story about CNN's "Hero of the Year", and a Bengals fan who won free pizza for everyone in the stadium during yesterday's game against the Browns.



Mashable.com put together a list of the top Christmas horror movies of all time, and even though 2nd Floor Sarah is out, we hooked you up with a few things going on in the area this week.



During today's "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a drone show that went horribly wrong, a bunch of skiers in Colorado that got stuck on a lift, a contractor in Maine who wanted just one more spin on the slot machine before being arrested, and apparently…people are putting glitter in their pickles.
