In Phoenix, Arizona, a giant 15-foot Red spoon was stolen from a Dairy Queen! Three people total caught on camera removing the giant spoon and loading it onto a flatbed trailer. It happened in the early morning of March 25th!
The spoon was very popular and constantly attracted people to take photos with it. It was anchored to the ground outside of the restaurant.
The restaurant hopes the people will return it. Or if anyone see’s it that they report it! Security footage showed the whole thing happen. You could also see their faces in the video footage. It was two men and a woman who stole the spoon!
Owners of the Diary Queen said the spoon costed $3,500 and twice that much to deliver it and install it. The owners also said they won’t ask any questions if it’s returned. They’re also offering a reward! If someone finds the spoon and reports it, they’ll get a free Blizzard in every flavor this summer!

When it comes to being a proud American, do you feel you’re “average” or “below average?”
Someone gathered stats of random things the “average” American does, then they polled people on BuzzFeed, so they could compare their answers. Eight different things were listed for them to vote on.
Now before we get to the eight things to see if you’re an above or below average American, we should probably define what “average” is. According to Google, the average American is considered social class. They’re referred to as being either a member of the middle or working class. And now that we’ve established this, it probably doesn’t pertain to these eight things that would define an average or below average American! So if you worried a little bit, you’ll be just fine!
We just want to make it clear that even if you do a lot of these things or don’t, there’s nothing wrong with being above or below average! You keep doing you. These results just show where you would rank amongst Americans.
