What’s Brewing With Jen – A Pizza Fight!
See what was brewing with Jen Scordo today. Every day on The Best Show Ever Jen Scordo shares 3 recent weird and interesting news stories. Today that included a giant whale sinks a 44-foot boat, a crocodile that stole a cooler from a picnic and a man who gets arrested for slapping his wife in the face with a slice of pizza … Here are her stories from today.
Four men were sailing in the Pacific Ocean from the Galapagos Islands to French Polynesia recently – that’s a 3,500 mile journey – when their 44-foot boat was capsized by a giant whale. Their 3-week sailing trip was cut short after 13 days when they were making pizza. One of the guys said he was just about to dip his slice into some ranch dressing when the whole back of the boat lifted upward. Many of the men saw the giant whale swim away from the boat. The 4 men then jumped into a lifeboat and spent the next 10 hours trying to reach someone to help them. They were finally rescued by The Rolling Stones… not the band, but a boat named The Rolling Stones owned by a guy named Geoff Stone… He picked up the crew and got them back to solid ground.
