We're gonna have a summer of either counterfeit Flakes scandals,or desperate ice-creamiers using non-canon bars as replacements and then getting attacked by outraged mobs. No matter what, it will never ever beat the hilarity of the time Ireland went completely insane over some Garth Brooks concerts. A timeline of the whole thing: https://www.thejournal.ie/garth-brooks-ireland-timeline-1560327-Jul2014/ It's hard to describe just how funny it was - just constant outrage on radio call-in shows, demands that various international figures, including Barack Obama step in to solve the Garth Brooks Crisis. edit: a sample of the kind of stuff we were getting on a near-daily basis:  https://www.irishmirror.ie/news/irish-news/garth-brooks-preparing-divert-ship-3823534 Pookah has a new favorite as of 12:48 on May 18, 2021 |

I guess posting pro wrestling news is cheating, but this mix of stupid storyline and legit injury news was amusing.

Not zombies, but Guillermo Del Toro's vampires in The Strain has the male genitals falling off as part of their transformation. They also fart while they suck blood. Guess which of these traits made it into the TV version.

I know there was a similar but different guy who had several claimed times that were determined to be mechanically impossible. I don't know if the same sort of thing has been found conclusively for Mitchell. I just remember thinking everything about the guy sounded extremely sus.

A couple years ago, my local arcade bar invited Billy Mitchell and advertised his visit heavily. They were absolutely shocked when, not only did that not attract anyone to the bar, it actually pissed off the normal patrons because Mitchell is a well known cheat and general POS.
