Here's another new product that would be cooler if you could actually buy it: Lay's has secretly been growing potatoes in dirt taken from NFL Stadiums. And they made a limited-edition line of CHIPS with them. But you have to win a bag.
They're called Lay's "Golden Grounds" chips, and the tagline is, "Grown in Glory." They did it for 29 of the 32 teams (Browns, Bengals, and Broncos fans are out of luck.) For teams that play on turf, they used dirt from somewhere else in the stadium. Then they mixed it with more dirt and grew potatoes in it.
To win a bag, go to Lays.com/GoldenGrounds and click on your favorite team's bag. That automatically tags them in a Tweet. Then you have to post a photo or video showing that you're a die-hard fan. They're doing five different giveaways between now and January 21st, and only giving out 200 bags per team.

Some criminals get their weapons on the black market others just go to their local Michaels.
Two female roommates in Florida were arrested on Monday, after allegedly perpetrating a "glitter attack" on a male victim.
According to police, 29-year-old Sarah Franks and 27-year-old Kaitlin O'Donovan were outside the man's residence at 3:00 A.M., and began arguing with him while he was standing on his fenced balcony.
It's unclear what they were arguing about but they began throwing glitter at him. One of the women jumped the fence, and threw more glitter. Then she made her way into his apartment, opened the front door so the other woman could enter and then they threw more glitter at him.
They ran off but the cops later found them, and they knew they found the right women because there was a trail of glitter leading to their vehicle.
Both roommates were hit with a felony charge of "burglary with assault or battery."
