Coast Trivia: Local sports history & famous ties
SUMMARY: This segment is one of the hosts’ favorites on the show. They are playing a trivia game to test their knowledge of their community’s history. They start off the segment by discussing the Biloxi Shuckers baseball team and when they started their inaugural season. The hosts try to guess the correct year, with one host guessing 2012 and the other guessing 2015. They eventually reveal that the correct year is 2015. They then move on to discussing the team’s previous names and mascot. The hosts also talk about a celebrity who owns a bar in Bay St. Louis, with one host suggesting Channing Tatum. They speculate if he has a bodyguard and eventually reveal that he does not. Finally, they mention a trivia question they will answer later in the show.
On today’s ‘Coast Trivia,’ the Good Morning Mississippi Crew tackles all things Biloxi Shuckers and reminisces on a famous tie to a Bay St. Louis bar.

SUMMARY: In October 2017, a new world record lightning bolt was detected, flashing across more than 500 miles. A study published in the American Meteorological Society Journal revealed satellite data showing a single lightning strike traveling from Texas through Oklahoma and Arkansas into Missouri. This surpassed the previous record of a lightning bolt stretching over South Mississippi in April 2020. The 2017 lightning event was part of a complex of storms stretching from Texas to South Mississippi, with satellite data indicating the bolt traveled 477 miles, setting a new record for the longest lightning flash ever observed.
The previous record was held by a bolt that flashed across the Gulf Coast and South Mississippi.

SUMMARY: The Attorney General’s office has concluded its investigation into a 2024 officer-involved shooting at the William Bell Apartments in Gulfport.
