On Wednesday, CBS aired an episode of “Superfan,” a music game show where devoted fans competed for the title of Pitbull’s biggest fan. Hosted by Nate Burleson and Keltie Knight, the show brought high-energy entertainment to the screen, featuring the… iconic artist… Pitbull.

“Superfan” brought together six music legends, each selecting one extraordinary fan in every episode to win a once-in-a-lifetime prize. The featured artists included Kelsea Ballerini, Gloria Estefan, Little Big Town, LL COOL J, Pitbull, and Shania Twain. Each chosen fan enjoyed an exclusive experience that money couldn’t buy.

“Superfan: Pitbull” proved to be an experience. A good one? Depends who you ask. But what Superfan did was showcasing the profound connection between artists and their most insane fans. Viewers tuned in to witness the ultimate fan showdown and discover who earned the esteemed title of Pitbull’s number one superfan. The battle was on, and the music world watched. This unforgettable episode of “Superfan” on CBS was a must-see event for all fans of Pitbull and music enthusiasts alike.

I bought the 12-foot skeleton - Here are the 12 best things about it

This viral gigantic skeleton has made another comeback, and once again, it’s flying off shelves and onto people’s front lawns. Home Depot’s 12-foot skeleton, a spooky sensation that has captured the hearts of enthusiasts across the nation, has proven its popularity with yet another sellout. 

The 12-foot skeleton, priced at $300, has become the ultimate must-have for Halloween. As summer edges towards its close, the anticipation for the spooky season is already building and the skeleton’s triumphant return has set social media abuzz once again.

This year marked the third and final restock for 2023, with both online rounds of availability vanishing within a blink. Even with the restriction of one skeleton per customer during the August 17th online restock, leaving many enthusiasts eager to claim their ghoulish prize.

This isn’t the first time this colossal skeleton has caused a stir. Both in 2020 and 2021, the skeletons vanished from shelves before the Halloween moon even rose, solidifying their status as holiday icons. However, their size has posed a storage challenge for many, prompting creative solutions to ensure these towering symbols of the season continue to make appearances for years to come.

For those who missed out on the online frenzy, check your local Home Depot stores. The 12-foot skeleton now beckons curious shoppers to explore brick-and-mortar establishments in pursuit of this coveted lawn ornament. It seems the charm of this towering decoration is so potent that even the $40, 3-foot skeleton alternative has met the same fate, leaving Halloween enthusiasts scrambling for alternatives.

Not me though. To make a long story short, my wife got laid off from her full-time job while on maternity leave. Describing it as just bad would be an understatement – she was really devastated by the decision. I mean, who wouldn’t be, right? She went through the motions of applying for what seemed like countless jobs and had a few interviews, but her enthusiasm was fading. That was until she managed to land an interview with a company she was truly excited about.

She’s also had this fixation on the 12-foot skeleton. So, I made a deal with her: If she got the job, I’d get her that skeleton.

Guess what? She aced the interview and secured the position. Now, our front yard is graced by this massive 12-foot skeleton, just as she wanted.

Here’s what I love about our adopted boney friend:
