Firstly, the bathrooms are NOT open to the public here at The Rat Studios! The parade does kick off at 12:30 pm on Sunday, March 3rd right in Lake Como. This beautiful parade goes down Main Street down into Belmar to 5th Ave. In the years past, and for the last 20 years that I have been attending you see a lot of stuff.

You will see people coming off the trains from all over and rocking that green attire. To the a couple of people just throwing up and not caring.  It is for all ages, so don't let that scare you. You get to let that guard down and just leave your problems behind. The best part is we are broadcasting live right out front of the 95.9 Rat studios so stop by and say hello to all your favorite DJs at The Rat. Let's get into a list and please add more in the comment section below.

Gotts is the unofficial mascot of the county. Whenever WRAT is hosting an event, people ask if Gotts will be there. there. Like Bigfoot, many people claim to see him in the area. According to Gotts, he was thrown out of home school in Monroe Township. To keep up with his own legend, Gotts likes writing about wacky local news that happens – such as pepperoni vandals. His favorite movie is Point Break, and is a big lover of Miller Lite. His favorite words to live by are “The windshield is always bigger than the rearview mirror”.
