There's no need to panic. Really. Yes, the upcoming total solar eclipse that will cross much of Missouri is historic, but there's a very practical reason why many in the state are suddenly stockpiling food supplies before it happens.
When you have a name like mine, you normally don't make fun of other people or place's names. In this case, I will make an exception as there are 7 Missouri towns that have names that are so bizarre it's hard to believe they are really town names.
I've heard my share of Missouri Bigfoot stories, but never one quite like this. A Missouri man claims he had one of these mythical creatures drawn to him possibly because of the awesome music he was playing on his car stereo.
