Leaving Las Vegas

These are hard times in Husky Nation. After five straight losses, the Dawgs play host to Arizona today.

Desperate times call for desperate measures, so the Huskies are going to try this “tackling” thing they’ve heard so much about. We’ll take the UW to win by more than the 3-point spread.

Meanwhile, UCLA pays a visit to WSU. The Bruins are only favored by a measly 6 points — a line that has the Cougars wondering if oddsmakers in Las Vegas have actually seen them play. We’ll take the deed to The Buzz’s mansion and put it on UCLA to cover.

Here’s a shocker: It turns out there are quiet getaways in the Las Vegas area. Perfect if you need to get out of town quickly after betting on the Huskies.

Frequent Vegas visitors may be surprised to learn there are places in Nevada where you can walk without being handed ads for escort services.

Caught with his pants down: A man was found naked in an Iowa restroom with an anatomically correct inflatable doll.

The man was arrested and charged with indecent exposure. He couldn’t explain why the doll was smoking a cigarette.
