With the New York Yankees winning the World Series last night, all those wacky bets between New York and Philadelphia radio stations now must be fulfilled. Here's some of the fun in store:By the terms of their wager, the morning show at Philly's Top 40 WCSK (Cheesesteak 93.1) must clean out their lockers and vacate the station by Monday, and the station must accept the syndicated Thor Luther morning show based at WGWG (G103)/New York for a term of not less than two years. Insiders say the plan was in the works anyway, but the station turned it into a bit to make the local Phillies team look like the bad guys, not parent company CCC.
In the bet between rock stations WBGW(95.9 The Bug)/Philadelphia and WPXR/New York, WBGW must turn over the Philly Fanatic mascot to WPXR for an on-air spit-roasting to be broadcast live from Times Square, while Nickelback serenades the crowd for free.
All-sports WTBI (930 The Waterboy)/Philadelphia is hard at work coming up with enough Philadelphia Cream Cheese to fill Madison Square Garden, fulfilling the bet the station made with New York sports voice WUMP (Umpire 95.3).
At least one friendly wager has been voided: Smooth Jazz WDUL/Philadelphia is off the hook and doesn't have to provide the Yankees with a promised private Kenny G concert. This comes at the request of Yankee management, who thanked WDUL for the kind offer but respectfully declined the event.
