A thirty nine 15 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: year old woman named Kelly Joe Fudd was at a 16 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: Chucky Cheese recently. It's his wife when she decided to 17 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 1: play a kid's game called snow Day. So in that game, 18 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: children go into a large phone booth shaped chamber and 19 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: then balls dropped from the ceiling. You're supposed to grab 20 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,040 Speaker 1: the balls and put them into a hole. 21 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: And it's all about tickets. 22 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 3: Like, honestly, these kids arcades have turned into minni vegas.

Why. 28 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: A bunch of kids came over to free her, but 29 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: that didn't work. Then came the manager. He was no help, 30 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: and eventually they called firefighters. 31 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: My birthday mom. 32 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, it took the EMT's twenty two minutes to rescue her. 33 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: Unfortunately for Kelly Joe, there were plenty of people around 34 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: with their cell phones out, and someone posted the video online, 35 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: which went viral. 36 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, she would take a part in that machine. 37 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: I bet she ended up being totally fine and even 38 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: stayed at that Chucky Cheese longer with her family. 39 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: Okay credits so yeah. 40 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: Afterwards game, a Chucky Cheese spokesperson said the game does 41 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:20,200 Speaker 1: not pose a risk, but that the adult miss Fudd, 42 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: who was playing it should have known it was intended 43 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 1: for children and definitely should not have put her body 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: part into that hole. 45 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: Well, at least it was just an arm. 46 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, out of all the body parts he could 47 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 1: have popped in. 48 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: There, and maybe best case scenario. 49 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: This next laser story is out of Vowtown, USA. The 50 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:45,799 Speaker 1: average wedding costs thirty three thousand dollars, or about two 51 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty four bucks per guest. And there's a 52 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: lot of hacks out there that claim to make things cheaper, 53 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: but that's mostly like twenty bucks here, he saved twenty 54 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 1: bucks there. It's still uncomfortably expensive. But this is a 55 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: new concept. There's a new app taking off in Europe 56 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: that allows couples to sell tickets to their wedding. I 57 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 1: love this. 58 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 3: It gets the people who just want to pay. 59 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: To cut all of us were like, hey, good Yeah, 60 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: And if you're out there feeling like getting like you're 61 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: getting triggered. This is not intended for your loved ones. 62 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: You're selling tickets to total strangers. 63 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: But is it. 64 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: My best friend got married in India and the weddings 65 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: there they just invite the entire village and people just 66 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 3: come and. 67 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 2: Go with us. 68 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: You get to choose how many tickets you want to 69 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 1: make available to the public, and paying ticket holders can 70 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: come and mingle with your guests and enjoy your happy events. 71 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: So you have dude, there were. 72 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 3: Some townies yeah that hung out during the reception.

It may be a little bit 81 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 1: strange for a couple not to know everyone, but it 82 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 1: wouldn't be too awkward for a guests because most people 83 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 1: at weddings encounter plenty of strangers that they've never met. 84 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 2: They need more single people at weddings anyway.
