Happy Friday, Denver! Jon, Kevin and Arthur are here and we have not been indicted for paying off a porn star. Well, not yet, anyway. We have been guilty of compiling this week's best stories for you to enjoy on the best day of the week. It's Friday! Let's see what's been going down in the week that was:
*If the Park Hill Golf Course developers lose at the ballot box next week, they said they'd make a "Top Golf-like facility." Are they torpedoing their own chances? Who knows? We talk about it and encourage you to vote. Story
here.
*Denver-born Donald Cerrone was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame and has some insane statistics inside the Octagon. You can read more about his gonzo career
here.
*Planning a garden this year? Denver 7 has
a story about how best to go about it, and the boys share what they would/do plant on their own.
*A retired librarian named Linda Garrity has started a non-profit helping women who are victims of trauma called "Heart 2 Heart" and we champion her efforts. We also share what nonprofits we would start if we could. Story
here.
*Iconic punk band The Bouncing Souls have a new album out called
Ten Stories High and one of the songs "Kenver" is all about our fair city. Always cool when a band from New Jersey has such fondness for our city they write a song about it. Check it out
here.
*Eric Clapton announced he's coming to Denver this summer. The only 3x inductee into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame will be a hot ticket. Check it out
here.
*E-bike vouchers are back! Get yours! Find out how
right here. Also, have you ridden an e-bike or a scooter? We all say they're fun as hell!
*Fox 31 wants to know who has the best burger in the Denver area and has a 64-entrant bracket to determine the winner. Find it
here. Want Arthur's pick? We gave you a hint in the episode title, but check it out
here.
*The Athletic had an incredible read about the career of Alan Roach, whose voice you've heard at the Olympics, in 15 Super Bowls, for the Colorado Avalanche, the Colorado Rapids, the Colorado Rockies (for a time), and the trains at DIA (among many others). This article is well worth your time. Find it
here.
*The Rockies kicked off their season in San Diego, WrestleMania happens over two nights this weekend, and Arthur encourages you to get out into the sun. We'd bet Mile High Life has a ton of recommendations for you!
