🌯 Burrito Bonanza

Ross County • January 29, 2025

Good morning, Ross County. In what might be the tastiest victory celebration since the invention of the tailgate party, Chipotle is turning Ohio State's championship into a feast for Buckeye Nation. Yesterday's BOGO bonanza wasn't just about free burritos - it was a testament to our state's deep-rooted connection with the chain, where OSU ranks among their top five collegiate customers nationwide.

Meanwhile, a different kind of opportunity is rolling into Pike County, where Austin Powder is looking to add more drivers to their explosive business venture. And yes, "explosive business" is meant quite literally - they're hosting Valentine's Day interviews for positions that combine the freedom of the open road with the responsibility of handling some seriously powerful cargo. Talk about a job that starts with a bang!
