Tiffany Stratton Jet Skis with WWE US Title Belt in Miami Bay
Tiffany Stratton took her new WWE United States Championship belt for a spin on a jet ski around Miami's Biscayne Bay to mark her recent victory over Giulia on SmackDown.
The WWE star's stunt quickly caught attention online. The writer, not a wrestling follower, spotted prime content as Stratton paraded the belt like a major trophy. Real WWE belts carry hefty value, insiders say -- up to at least $250,000. One Andre the Giant belt sold for $600,000. Stratton's prize isn't cheap plastic; losing it in the bay might prompt a recovery effort from Triple H.
Separately, Tiffany Stratton, WWE women's champion, went viral for a botched first pitch at a Mets game.
In North Dakota, Crosby high school golf coach Dillon L. shared video from a meet at Crosby Country Club's nine-hole course. The incident happened on hole 5. Teams usually drive two hours for meets; this home event ended in a win. Monday's match is under three hours away, and a super region qualifier at Bully Pulpit -- about 220 miles one way -- follows. Locals measure travel in time, not miles, given the remote area. Crosby sits far from fast food; McDonald's requires a long haul, Chick-fil-A four to five hours.
Millennial Chris B. in Bowling Green drove 35 minutes Thursday for his 10U travel ball team's 7 p.m. first pitch, only to see a four-inning run-rule loss. He got home around 9:30 p.m. and returned to digging gas line trenches Friday. Kids under 13 should stick to rec ball, not such trips.
Chris A. washes quarter-zip tops after every wear in his five-day office rotation, along with polos. Pants go eight to 10 wears unless soiled. Pit sweat soaks through, he says.
Readers weighed in on women using nicotine pouches. Chris B. in Florida and North Carolina cited: "I don’t smoke and I don’t chew, and I don’t go with girls that do." Tyler V. would date a pouch user but not a dipper, seeing it as less taboo than cigarettes. Rob M. in Florida knocked Natalie Decker's driving despite her looks and pushed NASCAR fixes like better races and manufacturer rivalries. Chris A. dubbed Charley Hull "Between Cheek and Gum Charley."
Mike T. shared video of driftwood forts on Washington Pacific beaches.
David recounted raising his stepdaughter, diagnosed at 18 months with a chromosomal disorder stunting cognitive growth to a 3-year-old level at age 27. She speaks in one- to two-word sentences, potty trained at 6, and thrived in a self-contained classroom through high school. State aid ended at 21. She loves birthdays, Christmas, and Disneyland trips. Two years ago, David got cancer and worried about leaving her. He asked the world to care for her.
