The 2011 WBKR/Halloween Havoc Road War is in the books!  Congratulations to our grand prize winners TEAM COLEMAN (Tim Coleman, Robert McKay, and Jeremy Mayfield) who mastered the course (they were just one-tenth of a mile off) and claimed our $1,000.00 purse!  The course, as always, was mind-boggling and frustrating and sent teams through scary twists, turns and challenges!  As usual, some teams dropped out along the way, but the majority plowed through to the finish!  If you competed in the Road War and wanna know which roads you SHOULD have taken, read on!  If you're curious how the Road War works, you read on too!  And join us in 2012 for another edition of the "scariest road trip in town!"

The WBKR/Halloween Havoc Road War is Saturday, October 22nd!  And lots of teams will be on hand trying to conquer tha "scariest road trip in town" in an attempt to win the grand prize of $1,000.00!  The "road warriors" who have competed before know exactly what to expect from the event, but we have been getting alot of questions at the station from folks who are interested in doing it for the first time!  So, Jaclyn and I decided that we would climb in the WBKR van with some of the clues from the very first Halloween Havoc Road War and show you how it's done!  Watch as Jaclyn, who was loaded up on Benadryl by the way, tries to figure out the clues!  She'll show you how it's done!!

HALLOWEEN HAVOC is again the proud sponsor of our annual WBKR Road War, a city-wide, Halloween-themed  "scavenger hunt" that offers teams a chance to win $1,000!   Each year, for that event, Halloween Havoc outfits the WBKR staff so we can man (or woman) the checkpoints on the Road War course in style.  So, Jaclyn and I decided that we would go to the store and do a Halloween fashion show.  That way, you guys can see some of the awesome and scary costumes Halloween Havoc has to offer.  And, because I am a good uncle (or a glutton for punishment and torture) , I suggested that little Jaclyn Jr. (a.k.a. Carsyn) come along for the ride.  Well, little Rosemary's Baby was in quite a mood!
