Anyone in NJ remember this commercial?

"Crazy Eddie! His prices are INSANE!" If you grew up around here, you can hear it right now. Who bought their first VCR or stereo at Crazy Eddie?

Beyond the Laughs: John Candy's Secret Contract to Care for the Crew Hollywood Forgot

While filming Planes, Trains and Automobiles in 1987, the shoot was brutal: icy winds, deep snow, and long days in rural Illinois. Most stars hid in heated trailers between takes.
But John Candy stayed outside.
He chatted with crew members, offered encouragement, and handed out fresh, hot coffee he'd arranged himself, knowing the catering truck's brew was lukewarm.
Candy's compassion wasn't a one-time gesture. It was a condition of his success.
The Man Who Fed the Crew
During the making of Uncle Buck, Candy noticed that younger crew members were often left to survive on vending machine snacks because the budget only covered meals for lead talent.
Without notifying a single producer, Candy quietly hired a hot food truck at his own expense, ensuring the entire team had something warm and substantial to eat. He believed no one should work hard under tough conditions and go unfed.
Director Chris Columbus, who worked with him on Only the Lonely, recalled how Candy learned every single crew member’s name by the third day. Each morning began with a personal greeting, and each night ended with a handshake and a genuine "thank you."
When a birthday was overlooked by production, Candy quietly organized a surprise cake and music between scenes.
Beyond the Spotlight
His approach came from his early years at Toronto's Second City, where he hauled equipment and cleaned stages long before fame hit. That experience instilled a deep respect for every job on set.
On Splash, when a sudden downpour threatened to destroy cameras, Candy didn't run for cover. He stayed behind, joking with the tech crew while helping them haul and save thousands of dollars worth of gear.
On a freezing night shoot for The Great Outdoors, he noticed shivering crew members. He immediately ordered portable heaters and blankets from a local supplier, covering the cost himself.
He famously refused preferential treatment. Once, learning the crew was crammed into coach while stars sat in first class on a flight, Candy gave up his first-class seat to a weary camera assistant and sat in the back without telling anyone.
John Candy never sought recognition for these acts. He never mentioned them in interviews. Directors and co-stars only began sharing these stories after his passing.
To Candy, true success wasn't about the size of the trailer. It was about uplifting the people behind the scenes. In a business obsessed with stars, John Candy made it his mission to honor the people who made the magic happen. His legacy rests on the quiet warmth and humanity he showed to the people the industry often overlooks.

If you grew up in New Jersey, October 30th wasn’t just the night before Halloween - it was Mischief Night.

By the 1920s-40s, the tradition of pranks was established across the Northeast, with NJ becoming especially known for it. TP, eggs, shaving cream, smashed pumpkins and doorbell ditching were all part of the fun.

But it sometimes went too far. On October 30, 1991, Camden saw about 150 fires, with dozens of buildings damaged and 57 people charged.

Unlike most of the country, NJ still calls it Mischief Night - a uniquely Jersey Halloween tradition.
