  • TFG Unbuttoned: Supermarket Sweep from 1991 Goes Viral
    Aug 13 2024

    Two contestants that billed themselves as business partners and set designers for plays on the 90’s game show, Supermarket Sweep, just celebrated 41 years together. A fan of the show was watching old reruns and tracked down the business partners and the story has gone viral. Then, the Harris/Walz Campaign is selling a camo style cap much to the chagrin of the MAGA red hat crowd. Finally, the 26-foot-tall Marilyn Monroe statue has found a new home in Palm Springs in the hopes that fewer children will look up her skirt and see her panties.
