This Week's UPDATES

It feels like it's getting a little more chilly out there and with November right around the corner, we can expect a lot more frights and screams and tricks and treats when Halloween comes to town. I was once invited to a Halloween party taking place this Thursday, but I couldn't go due to college scheduling and obligations, on the other hand, I know exactly what I would dress up as on the 31st, but I'm going to tell. While we all wait for the spooky festivities to begin, we don't have to wait for this week's 7-Day Round-Up which has got some serious topics at hand that viewers will find very interesting.


7-Day Round-Up

Thomas D'Alesandro III, brother of Nancy Pelosi passed away at the age of ninety.

The Max Sports rundown is on fire all week, with the beginning of the 2019-20 NBA Season last Tuesday, Week 8 of the NFL getting into full gear today, and the World Series between the Houston Astros and Washington Nationals now gone to a best of three. How ironic is it that after the Nationals won the first two games in Houston, the Astros would return the favor by winning the next two games in Washington, it just goes to show that this team will never give up fighting until they have once again won the World Series trophy. Also, with it being the midway point of the NFL season, it will be almost time to determine who will grab a playoff berth first, and it's likely to be the teams who are still undefeated. With any further ado, let's dive into the latest in sports right now.

Our Main Story this week is a funny story about Halloween, everyone has a crazy idea about what they going to dress up as, whether it's a lobster, a famous 90s pop culture reference, a werewolf, a piece of sushi, or even a bar of candy. A few days ago, a college student by the name of Kat decided to dress up as a Crunch Candy Bar, she shared a photo of herself wearing it inspired and bet that she couldn't get 1,000 retweets to make it her official Halloween costume. Sure enough, she has gotten 3,000 retweets and almost 9,000 likes on Twitter. So now Kat is getting a lot of mentions for her costume idea and which you wonder if it were that easy to come with the cheapest idea for a costume and get a thousand retweets and likes that were enough to make it a great idea. To see what people are saying about Kat the Crunch Bar, let's go to a Halloween edition of #TwitterTrend.

1000 retweets and instead of going as something “sexy” for my last college Halloween I’ll go as this crunch bar

Kat @KatARiedel

I love setting unattainable goals for the sake of the joke so I don’t actually have to follow through :-) please enjoy this costume from when my brother wanted to be a crunch bar for Halloween twenty years ago

Kat @KatARiedel

alright people it’s happening!!!

king of wannabe indies @DakDeMarco

This aged poorly

Kat @KatARiedel

an account with 215k followers retweeted me and it all went downhill from there

Awful Sex Advice @awfulsexadvice

Good chocolate candy pun.

Curtis🏀Edge @Curtisedge

I only retweeted this so that Cody would go as a Crunch bar.

Kat @KatARiedel

CRUNCH @crunchbar

💙💙💙

Rachel @rach_kathryn

What about: sexy crunch bar

Amber Putnam @AmberP_B_Me

For sure! Cinch the waist in, slit up the thigh, hair tied back in foil band. Ooh, it’d be great to have the top of the choc bar come up out of the wrapper, with bite marks on it, rt at the bust line.
