I will admit that I had never heard of this pizza chain before today, but if business experts are right, that will change soon. One of the fastest-growing pizza chains in America is already in 7 Missouri towns and that's expected to expand even further.

Black bears seem to be everywhere in Missouri right now. After a long winter of hibernation and spring of finding food sources, now they're visiting even the smaller parts of the state like Nixa, Missouri where neighborhoods have spotted one of these curious creatures.

Things are done...differently in some parts of Missouri. That's a fact. This town is a perfect example. It's a place in the Show Me State that closes schools and celebrates a holiday that's dedicated to one of the nastiest fish you can ever imagine eating.

The story of a Hannibal woman murdered by her fiance' was featured in August on Investigation Discovery's television series 'Happily Never After.' On October 1, the network will feature another story from the Show-Me State on national television.
