Local Stories

☕ Death Cafés in Colorado? They’re a thing.
Turns out, Coloradans aren’t just crunchy—we’re existential too. The Colorado Sun dives into the surprising popularity of “Death Cafés,” informal meetups where strangers sip lattes and chat about mortality. It’s part catharsis, part community, and fully on-brand for a state that does yoga in graveyards and composts its loved ones.

🔥 Wildfire Outlook: Dry, hot, and... not great.
The National Interagency Fire Center just dropped its latest forecast, and Colorado’s looking a little crispy. KUNC reports that New Mexico and Arizona are bracing for severe fire risks, and northern Colorado could be next if spring stays dry. Grab your reusable water bottles—and maybe a garden hose—just in case.

🏀 Nuggets clinch No. 4 seed, and Jokic is casually perfect.
Denver rolled past the Rockets 126–111 to snag the fourth playoff seed. KDVR reports that Jokic put up a 30-point triple-double like it was brunch. The playoffs start this weekend. Get your Mile High energy ready.

🐃 Buffs land a “freak athlete” WR from Campbell
Coach Prime is still cookin’. The Buffs just picked up wide receiver Sincere Brown from the transfer portal, and Sports Illustrated says the 6-foot-5 speedster is one of the most athletic receivers on the market. Deion calls him a “freak.” We call him a touchdown waiting to happen.

🍜 Boulder Reddit has spoken: Best ramen in CO?
Local slurp-heads are duking it out on Reddit over the best ramen in the state. Names like Chimera, Misaki, and Tokio are flying around. One user said they’d drive to Louisville just for a broth refill. Scroll the thread if you’re hungry for opinions—or actual ramen.
