Best headline we have ever had the privilege to write?

Best story we have seen in a while?

Yes and yes.

Per the Daily Iowan, a bunch of Hawkeyes baseball players are renting a house that apparently is haunted. We would have thought the entire story was a hoax, but the players brought in some Iowa-based Ghostbuster-types to check out the paranormal activity, and they were quoted in the story. But the best part?

It's not just a regular haunting. In addition to ghost-like shapes appearing, there is this:

Members of the house began noticing chairs being moved around in the kitchen late at night. And on two separate occasions, girlfriends of players have had underwear removed from them while sleeping, even though they were wearing pants. Each time, the undergarments were discovered in another place.

So there's that.

[Note: We have no "haunting" or "paranormal activity" tags, but we just discovered a "Glen Perkins" tag, so we're going with that. He's an ex-Gopher, and we're pretty sure he would have wanted it that way.
