Nerd Nite 22 Preview: Let's Wrestle! / Plus, LFK Crime Story of the Week: Jimboy at Munchers


The nerds are back on Wednesday and this time it's all about fighting!

There is a presentation on wrestling by local funnyman Peter Lyrene. Chip is pretty hyped.  We're hoping Peter tells some classic wrestling jokes like this one:

Q: Why do rednecks like to do it doggie-style?  
A: That way they can both watch wrestling.

There's also a presentation about the fight to save prairie chickens and one about Dagorhir (which is something nerdy involving foam fighting, we think).

We are connoisseurs of unusual LFK crime stories and last week brought an especially good one when local scoundrel Jimboy was caught mysteriously crawling around the ceilings at Munchers Bakery and claiming he was attempting to escape from a locked restroom even though the restrooms at Munchers (apparently) don't have locks.   It's a weird tale. Read it here via LJ-World.  Sadly, the non-anonymous talkbacks aren't as fun as they used to be, and most of the comments seem to have been removed for various reasons.

Chip:  "I'm certain that Jimboy was planning to lower himself into the bakery on a wire for a stunning Mission Impossible-style cream cheese doughnut heist made even more impressive by the fact that the place is open 24 hours."
