The Real Monster: Before You Knew His Name

We want to know this morning because Michelle and I had this discussion yesterday about the cornfield maze. We're talking about it off the air and I said gosh that just terrified the idea of a maze just gives me anxiety. In a cornfield? Yeah, it's a fogtivity and a lot of people do it and it's fun for the family. Uh-huh, and they've got a couple of them here in North Texas. Uh, I always thought that this ridiculous and anybody would be scared of a cornfield maze. In fact, there was a story, this was a few years ago. This happened in Massachusetts where a family went into a cornfield maze and it got dark and they closed the maze up but the family was still inside and they had to call 911. I'm really scared, it's really dark and we got a three week old baby without that. Calm down, your husband's with you, right? Yes, my lady. All right, so you know, terrified because I couldn't find their way out. Yeah. And you think you just walk in one direction but it's really not that easy so they had to actually send like the canine patrol out there. Say hello canine. Hello canine. Say it again so he can eat because he can't see you so say hello canine. Say you canine. Hello canine. Keep going, sir. Do you want something to do? Hello canine. We see light. All right, so they finally saw the car lights from the police officer's vehicle and then afterwards the owner who left didn't realize there's a family in there. He felt horrible. He offered them free tickets to go back to go back. They didn't answer but their face is mine. Never again. We thought this would be fun instead of tonight. And I remember doing that story when it came out and thinking, you know, how silly. Why couldn't they just walk in one direction until they finally came out? And then my wife and I, my sister, we went to a cornfield maze in Vermont. Mm-hmm. And I'm going to tell you, I can see how one you can get lost and two you can panic. Yeah, I mean, I, I, okay, so a cornfield maze has to be different than just a regular maze. Yeah. Because there's one in the stock yard, right? Yes, yeah. And you can kind of see people get lost if you don't see them in that overview platform. There's a viewing platform. But that's not even that big. I mean, that's, that's maybe the size of like a large office. Uh-huh. But these cornfield mazes are acres upon acres sometimes. Okay, but the way them, the corn is planted, can't you just go in that direction? No, no, I, you're in, you, you are right to be a little nervous about a cornfield maze. Obviously, because I don't know how it works. Yeah, well, you get out there and you're just walking around and you can't really see above the corn and the corn is thick. So you think, you know, you could eventually see the road. No, you can see maybe like three rows ahead of you. And then it's just so thick that you can't see anything past that. So you get, and then you get turned around too. You don't remember which way is like the, where you started. Like, do we go this direction? Do we go that direction? That's scary. I wonder, I wonder out there if there's anybody who has been in a cornfield maze and panicked a little bit. Oh, I would. I mean, I have to look this up. I'm like, what do you do? Okay, I've googled it. What do you do? They're like, well, don't panic. Well, obviously. No, I know, but it's hard to say don't panic. All right. We're on a quest this morning. Can we find someone who got a little, got a little frightened in the cornfield maze? Pain your story? My son went to a private school. We lived up in West Virginia years ago. And I took him. We went to a corn maze for his school. And I had him and six little boys. They were in the second grade. We got lost. And some older kids kept jumping out of the cornstocks. Fairiness. And I had a, I had a group of little boys who were very hysterical and we were so lost in the corn maze. We were lost in like 45 minutes. Oh my god. How did you get out? Somebody came to look for it. See? Michelle? See? What? I'm just saying you're right. I know I'm right. I've watched children of the corn. The ones up here though are not as big as the ones up north. Because up north they're doing an actual corn farm. Yeah. So it goes for acres and acres and acres. Somebody said, you know, it only gets scary if the cornfield made owners left. And someone was stuck at night after hours when the coyotes and mountain lions come out. Well, that's terrible. Thank you. Are we going to text some other people about the cornfield maze? Yeah, somebody said one of my earliest memories as a child was a corn maze. My parents thought it would be fun. And it was supposed to be a nighttime one. Well, they didn't know that it was a haunted corn maze. If guy jumped out, absolutely lost it. Super nice. He was trying to make me laugh. And then we were debating whether we should continue on. And then we heard the chainsaw. And that was it. I mean, that makes it much worse. You're already terrified about being in a corn maze. And now a guy with a chainsaw is chasing you down. Hey, how can we make this even scary here? Let's bring like a haunted one. What would you do if your online store converted 36% more shoppers? You could take 36% more vacation.

All right, the only thing actually scarier than a cornfield maze is just corn by itself. Tell everybody what happened to you. So I'm from Iowa and when my daughter was about 18 months old, the corn was probably seven feet tall. You know, it's not ready to be harvested. And she had been out playing. And literally I turned my head for a minute. Go back out, I can't find her. And she has wandered out into a large area of corn, which sent me into panic. So I'm trying to get my husband up to help look for her. And I get took forever to find her. Because she had followed a little kitten out into the corn. Oh no. It was really scary because there was a highway in front of us so you couldn't see either side of the house because the corn was so high. So we were like panicking. And so finally, we found her. But it took us probably an hour to find her. And how old was she? Wow. About 18 months old. Oh my god. Wow, 18 months old. And you lost them in the corn. That's scary. I know. I mean, Diego, who's two years old, and just wandering around for an hour and corn. I know. You know what? No more corn. We're in. We're down with the corn. Everybody plant cotton. It's much smaller. It says 755 New Country 963 with Hawkeye and Michelle. Do we get another text? Did you want to share? No, I mean, everyone is saying, by the way, somebody wants to let you know that we actually have mountain lions. Oh, we do. Oh, that's right. Yes, I do remember. Yes, we do. But other people are just saying it gets very scary. It does. And you can't really blame it. But this was something that, yeah, of course, I didn't think of now with our cell phones. You can just drop a pen and let people know where you are. Oh, yeah. Or you could probably see exactly where you are, what direction you need to go to just cut through all the corn and go right out to the road. Are you a real view or something? Yeah, yeah. I mean, just, yeah, where you are on the map, it drops, you know, it shows you where you are and just shows you where the road is and just cut through the corn. Don't follow the path. OK. And can do that, too. All right. I'm going to want this weekend. I'm going to go now. Try that, try that theory. All right. New Cuttery 963, Hawkeye and Michelle. Crown coins to CEO.
