Okay, so this isn’t “tech” news, it’s more “news of the weird.” But here at ZATZ, we like news of the weird. So… why wait in line when you can just eat a cockroach? That’s the question Six Flags Great America is asking its thrill seekers during its Halloween-themed FrightFest. The amusement park is daring customers to eat a live Madagascar hissing cockroach in exchange for unlimited line-jumping privileges. Anyone who chows down the entire 2- to 3-inch horned cockroach will get a pass for four people to cut to the front of ride lines through Oct. 29. The bug buffet continues with a cooked roach eating contest Oct. 13–Friday, Oct. 13.
