Yesterday, I pitied poor Katie Horner and the backlash against the KCTV5 chief meteorologist's often hysterical and overprotective forecasts. I also highlighted a drinking game, which I first saw on Lawrence.com, that is sure to leave you black-out drunk during the next Horner-gasm.
Turns out the game is the brainchild of Adam Yarbrough, who posted a comment asking for credit. It's all yours,
man. Great game.
Earlier this morning, I talked with Yarbrough and he told me that he concocted the game one stormy night when Horner interrupted regularly scheduled programming for another marathon forecast. Yarbrough posted the game on his Facebook page and his friends loved it.
Still, despite Horner's repeated interruptions this year, Yarbrough has yet to play his own game.
"I don't really drink that much," he told me.
That's cool. But the next time a tornado hits Tonganoxie and Horner interrupts 60 Minutes, I'm raising a glass to you, Adam.

We all know that the tornado broadcasts are important. And I did not become upset until I realized channne 5 was repeating the same thing over and over with no new information. There has got be a way to preserve the network programming durning these marathon weather broadcasts. I noticed that 9 only put Brian on in the commercial breaks. But on 5 you seem to wait until the show is on to interrupt and then you go back to programming during the commercials, not cool. I would rather see the show that the commercials. All that does is make the change the channel. Missing all of 60 Minutes was bad enough. But when you interrupted the TONYS and kept interruping the TONYS, it just showed how insensitive you are to your viewers. It is one thing to rebroadcast a show at a later date. But you cannot reboradcast The TONY's, DUH! Veiwers will never get those moments back. It is clear that channel 5 has no clue. I will not be watching you in the future.
