In June, you guys cared about Ryan Dunn, K2 and Louis CK

We decided to take a look back at June and see what you guys cared about last month. The top story of the month: Jackass star Ryan Dunn dying in a drunken driving car crash (with a blood alcohol content of .196 and driving between 130 and 140 mph in his Porsche).

You guys also cared about Donald Jones, who is accused of voluntary manslaughter in the death of his friend, Ronald Oliver. Jones told police that he "threw a knife" at Oliver during an argument while watching the NBA Finals. I'm guessing Jones' mug shot had something to do with this.



Nearly two years after Pitch staffers played lab rats and smoked K2 synthetic marijuana to see if ti works, people are still checking out the product test.

Kansas City is also full of pride, so when comedian Louis CK called our home "a shithole" on The Tonight Show, you guys took notice. 

The last big story of the month: Kansas state Rep. Pete DeGraaf's comments from May comparing a rape pregnancy to getting a flat tire.

You guys didn't seem to care about Vicky Hartzler telling a gay medical student not to feel bad that she thinks gays are icky, the chances of KU's Morris twins of playing together in the NBA and Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback's plan to find mentors for prison inmates.
