Flag etiquette 101

I'm not an expert in flag etiquette, but I'm sure this is a no-no.

Buffalo wing eating competition

A dozen brave folks competed in the Buffalo Wild Wings eating competition held Saturday (Aug. 30) during festivities for the Kankakee Power Boat Nationals. The first two to finish their plateful of wings then faced off in the final round. The winner, Lance Keller, of Bradley, accepted his trophy -- and then gulped beer out of it -- after his competitor, Jeremy Stam, of Kankakee, conceded about three minutes into the five-minute finale.

Cardboard Boat Races

The Cardboard Boat Races have been an annual event at the Kankakee Power Boat Nationals. Competitors get the same materials -- sheets of cardboard, Duct tape and plastic sheeting -- and have a couple hours to build a boat, which they then actually put to the test on the Kankakee River. Most of the vessels aren't seaworthy, but that's one of the reasons it's fun to watch.
