“KFC is bringing back Colonel Sanders”
2
Fried chicken fans, rejoice. The Colonel is back. KFC is resurrecting Colonel Sanders for its latest ad campaign. The real Harland Sanders, who created the chain's famous secret recipe, died in 1980. But KFC owner Yum! Brands has a series of new commercials featuring Darrell Hammond -- most famous for "Saturday Night Live" -- playing Sanders. A video appeared on YouTube Tuesday with Hammond, dressed as Sanders, giving "The State of Kentucky Fried Chicken Address." The new TV spots will start airing on Memorial Day -- May 25, and are part of an attempt by KFC to change its image. KFC is also remodeling its stores' interiors and exteriors and will roll out several new products, such as Kentucky baked beans, Finger Lickin' Good Sauce and lemonade from Dole. But will this nod to the past attract millennials, a demographic that all fast food chains are desperately trying to reach?

In Other News Disney World is looking to crack down on guests who use selfie sticks on rides at the park. The Orlando Sentinel reports a spokesman said Monday guests can bring selfie sticks on the rides but must securely store them. Disney policy forbids visitors from using the sticks, which can be used to extend cameras out up to 3 feet. One ride, Thunder Mountain, has had a number of incidents in which the ride had to be stopped because of selfie-stick use. On Friday, Disney World workers posted a "No Selfie Sticks" sign at the Magic Kingdom's Thunder Mountain Railroad.

Police in Sarasota, Florida, have arrested a man they say broke into a home, then fell asleep on the couch. The Bradenton Herald reports 29- year-old Timothy Bontrager was arrested Saturday morning. Police say the resident woke up and found Bontrager sleeping on her living room couch. When she asked Bontrager what he was doing in her house, he apologized and left after she told him she was calling police. Officials say the resident told them Bontrager entered through an unlocked sliding glass door in the back of the house. The resident then noticed her wallet, driver's license, credit and debit cards as well as checks were missing from the table in the living room. Bontrager was arrested a short time later. It's unclear if he has a lawyer. Police in Sarasota, Florida, have arrested a man they say broke into a home, then fell asleep on the couch.
