Hayes Hamburgers: A Slice of Nostalgia Struggling to Stay Open

Kansas City, MO — For nearly 70 years, Hayes Hamburgers at Antioch and Vivion Rd has been a blast of Kansas City past, serving up crisp burgers and nostalgia in equal measure, right down to it's refusal to get with the times and accept Plastic, operating as a cash-only business. Opened in 1955, this classic diner was once a beacon for late-night cravings, its neon sign glowing 24/7 over bustling counters and sizzling grills. But the era of round-the-clock service is now a fond memory, as the beloved eatery struggles to stay afloat amidst staffing shortages and an uncertain future. Like many small businesses, Hayes was hit hard by the pandemic. Once renowned for its reliability, the diner’s hours have become erratic. With only three employees on staff, day shifts are a scramble, and the once-vital overnight hours have been abandoned altogether. Despite this it is still a bargain, their sliders are only $2.10. Regulars are often greeted by locked doors and handwri...

Video Gamer Hits 107 mph Before Stop By Northland Kansas City Police

Claycomo, MO – December 30, 2024 In a story straight out of a gaming nightmare, a speeding driver in the Northland took multitasking to a dangerous new level—combining high-speed driving with a video game. On Friday evening, December 27, Claycomo police officers clocked a car at a shocking 107 mph on I-35. But the driver wasn’t just speeding—he was playing a video game at the same time. The stop revealed more than just a need for speed. According to law enforcement, the driver was operating on a suspended license, adding yet another layer of recklessness to the incident. What wasn’t revealed, however, is the most pressing question of the moment: What game was he playing? While police reports don’t confirm the title, the department’s tongue-in-cheek public safety note speculated, “We forgot to ask if he was playing NASCAR, but we’ll assume.” Others have suggested Mario Kart, given the chaotic energy of the situation. Regardless, one thing is clear: the driver was dangerously out of touc...

Metro North Mall's Macy's Finally Put Out of Its Misery

The Dead Remains of Metro North Mall For years, the lonely Macy's at Metro North Mall stood as a haunting relic of retail's heyday, surrounded by a desolate expanse where a bustling mall once thrived. Now, the end is near for the department store that has endured long past its prime. Macy's has confirmed the location at 400 NW Barry Road is slated to close next month, marking the final chapter for one of Kansas City’s most iconic but beleaguered shopping landmarks. A Struggle to Survive The Metro North Mall was once a jewel in the crown of Kansas City’s retail scene. Opened in 1976, it featured a skating rink, movie theaters, and dozens of stores that catered to the city's northern suburbs. For decades, it thrived as a community hub. By the 2000s, however, the mall struggled to compete with newer shopping destinations like Zona Rosa, coupled with the rise of online shopping. As the mall fell into decline, stores shuttered one by one, until it was finally demolished in 2...

Fishy Smell Reported in KC Northland water.

Residents Treated to Eau de Missouri River in Their Faucets Kansas City, MO – Nothing says “home sweet home” like the pungent aroma of your city’s drinking water greeting you in the shower. Kansas Citians across the Northland area are discovering a new, earthy ambiance in their faucets, courtesy of what KC Water assures is a completely natural phenomenon. It all started when residents took to Reddit—naturally, the arbiter of municipal grievances—to complain about their tap water reeking of… well, something indescribably foul. One Redditor claimed that KC Water blamed a “new chemical” added to the water treatment process for the odor and promised it would vanish in a few days. But wait! According to KC Water spokesperson Jackson Overstreet, no such chemical exists, except perhaps in the fertile imaginations of internet users. Instead, Overstreet explained, the smell can be chalked up to seasonal changes in the Missouri River, which apparently decided to gift Kansas City with its si...
