What is it?

Our Muddy Buddy crew will be selecting the best and the worst comment from our Facebook page every month. One lucky winner will receive a $100 dollar gift certificate to Happy Maids. The worst comment gets to be publicly admonished with the Shame Shame Bell.  It’s all in good fun and a reminder that what you write in that comment section is visible to our 29,000 local Facebook following. Muddy River News loves the engagement. 

This month’s award for best comment could go to just about anyone in the comment section on the Frankie Say post where Jared Tipton from 8te Open joins the podcast to announce his new endeavor, an additional restaurant, Atlas Slice, opening soon on the 6^th Street Promenade. The outpouring of positivity and the support of the community is what makes it strong. Now we couldn’t award everyone, so we randomly picked one. 

Bruce Gilker wrote, “Great food and little man on the register is so cool.” 

The “little man” Bruce is referring to is Washington Tipton, the owner’s son. Washington has customer service skills in his blood and can run a busy food counter better than most people who do it for a living.

Way to go, Washington! And thank you, Bruce for the positive engagement. 

Much like every month, the negative comment of the month that gets the Shame Shame Bell could go to a lot of people in our comment section but there can only be one.

Our worst comment is under the article, “Aldermen approve Juneteenth as annual paid holiday, learn about recent rise of street racing on bottom road.” Brandon Koch writes, “How many more days we got left on filling those potholes? Can’t wait!”

Not once were potholes mentioned in that article. The cover photo for the article was our new mayor smiling in her seat during a council meeting. Why are we rooting for our mayor to fail? If the mayor fails, Quincy fails. Are party politics the reason for this rooted failure or is there some other issue here? Either way, as citizens of Quincy we should be rooting for our community’s success not it’s failure.
