The US Navy ship that casted Osama Bin Laden’s body into the Arabian Sea will now host a college basketball game against two school power houses… if that’s not American I don’t know what is! The USS Carl Vinson will host the standoff between the University of North Carolina and Michigan State. 7,000 lucky fans, mostly military personnel and their families, will watch the two school power houses square off. The carrier ship will be docked off San Diego and will be hosted 11/11/2011.
Despite the Carl Vinson’s famous track record, the ship was chosen because it will be in US waters but is expected to return to sea by the year’s end. The event is called the Carrier Classic, which the NCAA hopes to make an annual event. #AMERICA
The mystery has been solved! The Vancouver Riot kissing couple have been idenfitied as Scott Jones and Alex Thomas. According to the boy’s mother Megan Jones said, “It is something he would do, that’s our boy. He has always lived in his own world, he’s special like that. He doesn’t always connect with what going on around him.”
Jones, who is 29 and a standout comedian, moved to Vancouver six months ago and began dating Thomas shortly after. Writting on his Facebook, Jones said, “Classic! This was shortly after the riot police run over the top of us and naturally Alex needed some comforting.”
Despite people saying the picture was staged, the couple insist they were caught up in the moment, and it has now become one of the most famous makeout scenes of all time…. move over VJ Day in Times Square couple!
