Tom Harris2026-07-20T23:40:07.000Z

Phoenix Reid2026-07-20T23:56:07.000Z

Sam North2026-07-21T00:29:07.000Z

Casey Adams2026-07-21T00:43:07.000Z

bet the council will blame the pilot while the strip's been neglected for years

Casey Adams2026-07-21T01:16:07.000Z

Sam North2026-07-21T01:25:07.000Z

wonder if alcohol was involved? too early for that i guess lol

Phoenix Reid2026-07-21T01:51:07.000Z

too early for a piss up, maybe he was just unlucky

Tom Harris2026-07-21T02:21:07.000Z

facts, but still scary for the people nearby

Casey Adams2026-07-21T01:32:07.000Z
