Pastor trying to prove how Jesus walked on water gets eaten by crocodile

 

Jonathan Mthethwa was trying to show his congregation how Jesus walked on water by crossing what is locally known as Crocodile River on foot, according to local reports, however, he did not make it across the river in Zimbabwe, Joinfo.com reports with reference to Metro.

The pastor, from the Saint of the Last Days church, managed to get around 90ft into the river, the paper reported, before trying to climb onto the surface of the river.

Eyewitness Deacon Nkosi told Zimbabwe Today: ‘The pastor taught us about faith on Sunday last week.

‘He promised he would demonstrate his faith to us today, but he unfortunately ended up drowning and getting eaten by three large crocodiles in front of us.

‘We still don’t understand how this happened because he fasted and prayed the whole week. They finished him in a couple of minutes.

‘All that was left of him when they finished eating him is a pair of sandals and his underwear floating above the water.

If you really feel the need to try and walk on water is it also absolutely necessary to do it in a place called Crocodile River? Or was that supposed to be some super duper show of extra faith?

 

Wait, doesn't that mean he was basically trying to show Jesus up? "You walked on water? Pshhh. I'm walking on water filled with crocodiles!"

 

THAT'S why he got eaten. Hubris is a dish best served raw.

IndyCar drivers robbed at Taco Bell drive-thru

 

Indy 500 driver Scott Dixon and retired racer Dario Franchitti were robbed at gunpoint in a Taco Bell drive-thru Sunday night, according to an Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Report.

Dixon’s wife, Emma Davies-Dixon, was also with the two drivers. According to the police report, the robbery occurred around 10 p.m. ET, just hours after Dixon won the pole position in the 101st running of the Indy 500. The Taco Bell is less than a mile away from the racetrack.

This is why you avoid the drive thru, if they don't **** you at the drive thru, they'll rob you.

Yankees Lost $166 Million in Ticket Sales Between 2009 and Last Season, And It’s Getting Worse 

 

Right now, the Yankees are flourishing on the field. Aaron Judge hits a new towering home run seemingly every other day. Gary Sanchez is excitable. The team is 27-17, leading the AL East by 2.5 games. But, if you watch the Yankees on television you still see a stadium littered with empty seats.

In the New York Times, Billy Witz writes that the ticket and suite sales have been languishing:

 

But even those selling points have yet to turn around attendance at Yankee Stadium, where ticket and suite revenues through last season had fallen by a staggering $166 million since the end of 2009, the year the Yankees christened the new ballpark with their last World Series title.

The financial figures, from the public filings the Yankees are required to make on their stadium bonds, represent a 42 percent loss in ticket and suite revenues over the last seven seasons. And despite the team's compelling play this season, attendance through the first quarter of their home schedule is down from the same point last year.

The story notes that 3,793 fewer fans are coming per game than last season, and that only the Mets' and Royals' attendance have tailed off more significantly. A few things, such as a rainout causing a double-header and not yet hosting the Red Sox are factored into this, but are hardly the underlying causes. The only silver lining is that this saves them a little bit of money in luxury tax disbursements. The franchise is scrambling in every which way attempting to get young fans through the turnstiles.

The Yankees only have themselves to blame for their current predicament. They had one of the true cathedrals in sports and they threw it away for a garish symbol of opulence.

 

(...and I really, really like that last line about opulence...)

Urinating ‘Sketchy Dog’ Statue Appears Next to ‘Fearless Girl’

Wall Street is going to the dogs — or at least it did for a few hours on Monday.

That's when artist Alex Gardega installed a pug statue called "Sketchy Dog," which appeared to be urinating on the "Fearless Girl" statue's leg.

"Most people were amused or perplexed by it," Gardega told NBC News. "Kids petted it, people were taking pictures with it. A few were upset and kicked it."

Gardega said he created his clay and faux bronze "Sketchy Dog" as an act of solidarity with guerilla artist Arturo Di Modica, who created Wall Street's iconic "Charging Bull" statue.
