She stars in the new show The Playboy Club in which she looks amazing in her little Bunny outfit, plus she comes with her own sporting reference; she bats for the other team, her girlfriend is Tasya van Rees."

The Dayton Gems of the Central Hockey League are holding "Salute to Steve Bartman Night" on Oct. 14 (the date in 2003 when Bartman became famous). The team has offered Bartman a free ticket to the game and any fans dressed as Bartman (Cubs hat, green turtleneck and wearing headphones) will receive one free admission to the game. (Thanks to Nick, of Kansas City, for the link.)
