Should the station give Fred Toucher tickets to Saturday’s Bruins game?

Last night, Linus Ullmark secured his second shutout of the season with 31 saves, leading the Boston Bruins to a 3-0 victory over the Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena. David Pastrnak and Pavel Zacha contributed a goal and an assist each, aiding the Bruins' win as they improve with three victories in their last four games.

During this morning's Toucher & Hardy radio program while discussing the Bruins game, Fred Toucher, host of the highly rated radio program, openly discussed his interest in attending the Bruins matinee game on Saturday and mentioned that he would reach out to sales for tickets. However, Rob "Hardy" Poole, who looks for new and different ways to rain on Fred's parade, is convinced that any available tickets have already been taken. Fred then asked listeners whether he should have access to the station-owned box for events since he’s the host of the top morning show in Boston. He also points out that while he rarely asks for tickets (company guy). Callers expressed support for Fred, citing his contributions to the station’s success and suggests he should get tickets to the game.

Hardy also shared stories about perks he received in previous jobs, such as season tickets and ski passes. But this article isn't about Hardy and his ski passes. It's about Fred, who, according to a caller, is one of the three biggest stars at the radio station (Scott Zolak and Mike Felger being the other two).

So, in the name of science, What do you think? Should Marconi Award-winning ratings-juggernaut Fred Toucher be granted with a pair of tickets to this Saturday's Bruins matinee?

It's rumored I penned the article highlighting 14 delicious summer favorites to eat at Sullivan’s Castle Island. I'm here to share the truth.

It was long rumored that I wrote this article highlighting 14 delicious summer favorites to eat at Sullivan’s Castle Island, but as you know, INTEGRITY MATTERS to me. Long story short, it was actually someone from Hot 96.9 who originally crafted the article, but with Fred referencing it on the show, listeners believed this listicle was created by yours truly.

But with the summer months quickly approaching and goals needing to be reached, I have decided that maybe I should conduct my own power rankings of Sullivan Castle Island menu items, especially since they NOW have a second location in Hanover Crossing open year-round (Next to Marshfield... My old stomping grounds.)

So this isn't simply a list of summer menu items; this is a DEFINITIVE POWER RANKING of Sullivan's Castle Island menu items, which are available all year long!

Sullivan's kicked off back in 1951 over at Castle Island, serving up all sorts of goodies like hot dogs, fried clams, lobster rolls, burgers, chicken sandwiches, soft serve, and a bunch more.

Now, without further adieu, I give you the DEFINITIVE LIST of Sullivan's Castle Island menu items:

This is at the bottom of the list. Why? Because fish is gross to me. I don't enjoy it. I know i'm not giving you alot right now, but oh well. Deal it it, I guess.

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: I don't know. Probably not, but who cares? Nasty.

Look... I'm not knocking their fries. They're delicious, ESPECIALLY with vinegar. But the cheese is too much. First, you have to eat them quickly or they'll get soggy. It's just too much for me, but what do I know?

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: No

From here, everything is a toss up when it comes to rankings. I opted to begin with their milkshakes. Let me tell you, Sullivan's knows how to make milkshakes that brings all the boys to the yard. I would know. Wink.

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: DELICIOUS with vinegar! Not so much with salt.

I have personally tried these and they are JUST delightful. Why? Because their clam strips are battered and fried to perfection, you silly goose!

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: I did not try them with vinegar. However... I'd give it a try!

Two juicy Angus Beef patties topped with melted American cheese between a toasted burger bun. Does two patties intimidate you? They also serve a regular single patty cheeseburger, but be prepared to be judged!

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: I knew I forgot to try it with vinegar! Check back. I promise i'll update!

The hot fudge sundae is a Sullivan’s favorite... Especially on a hot summer day on Castle Island! It's got everything you need: Vanilla soft serve with hot fudge, whipped cream, and a cherry on top. I'd throw in a little caramel on it, but that's just me. Different strokes for different folks, amirite??

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR: I'm gonna lean towards no. A hot fudge sundae wouldn't be good with vinegar. Or salt.

According to last year's list, Sullivan's Onion rings are "one of the most popular sides" on the menu. Ridiculous! We all know what the most popular side on the menu is. Dare I say... most popular ITEM!

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: I bet onion rings with a side of vinegar would be a tasty treat!

According to the website, their lobster roll is lightly dressed with mayo on a toasted hot dog roll. I'm more of lobster roll warm with butter, but I can go either way. I'm not picky. All I know is i'll be spending a darn fortune! I'm kidding, ofcourse

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: I wouldn't recommend it.

Do you ever not like a nice, hot, grilled hot dog sliced? You like it, right?

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: "Unequivocally the Sweetest"

Ofcourse the crinkle-cut fries are at the top of the list! Why? Because they're hit among the masses. They're also delicious with salt and vinegar or without. Choose your own adventure!

GOOD WITH SALT & VINEGAR?: “You have to have the fries with salt & vinegar... or without. either way those fries are delicious. “
