  • The News Anchor America Needed
    2024/11/07

    2024/10/31
    It is a century-old legend wrapped in a basketball conspiracy: The Skirvin Hotel in Oklahoma City was the visiting team's resting place of choice.

In a crossover Halloween spook-tacular, Pablo sends Oddball hosts Amin Elhassan and Charlotte Wilder on a ghost-hunting sleepover to investigate the foremost paranormal story in sports.
