Following in the footsteps of the Leprechaun in the tree and the crazy old woman who threw garden chemicals at her neighbors comes this news broadcast.
I’m not sure if this makes me feel better or worse about streaming into broadcast.

Course, when he said he had a human left foot, he obviously meant besides the one attached to his leg.
I wonder if the reporter kept a copy of this for her portfolio?

After watching the broadcast (which went on way too long), I found that the foot in the grill wasn’t the most ridiculous part:
1) Dude wants to keep an amputated foot as a conversation piece. Get this man a Chia Pet, stat!
2) He wants to make the smoker into a tourist attraction? If I don’t see a foot, I ain’t paying. You know what? I got a BBQ grill that used to house body parts, too, but cops took the limbs away as well. I’ll see your amputated foot and raise you an ear and three testicles!
3) If you look at the bottom left screen, this story aired seven minutes into the broadcast, meaning it’s one of their top stories. I guess it’s a good thing for the city that this is the worst thing that happened that day, but as a reporter, I hate to work on the “less newsy” stories that aired after this segment.
