A Mississippi woman is considering filing a lawsuit after she allegedly discovered a foreign object inside a Snicker's bar. Payton Davis claims she purchased the Snicker's in November from a Family Dollar Store. After biting into the bar, Payton said she felt something hard and spit it into her hand. The object looked like a tooth, so Payton took it to a dentist who said it was probably a tooth from a rodent. Davis has hired an attorney to possibly file a lawsuit.

Besides the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers, guess who's coming back to the Super Bowl? Anheuser-Busch has released a 15-second video clip teasing the return of the trademark Budweiser draft horses known as the Clydesdales. The beer company stopped airing commercials with the horses during the Super Bowl three years ago as it said it wanted to raise awareness about the COVID-19 vaccine along with the Ad Council. That marked the first time in nearly 40 years that Anheuser-Busch had skipped the Super Bowl. The teaser video shows the Clydesdales emerging from their stables in a blizzard to the sound of "The Weight" by The Band. The Super Bowl airs February 11th on CBS, Paramount Plus and Nickelodeon.

California Highway Patrol officers got involved in a pursuit in East Los Angeles last Friday that might not have been high speed, but the word "high" does apply. Officers were reportedly trying to make a traffic stop on a car but the driver failed to yield, so a California Highway Patrol airship started to chase the suspect. At the end of the chase, police say a search of the vehicle turned up nearly 40-pounds of marijuana and 120-pounds of psychedelic mushrooms. The mushrooms and marijuana were worth nearly 400-thousand dollars.
