A New York man has gone viral for a prediction he made in his high school yearbook six years ago that the New York Knicks would win an NBA title in 2026. Evan Pfeufer chose to have “Knicks in 6. 2026 NBA Finals” written next to his portrait in the 2020 Smithtown High School West yearbook. The prescient prediction has gone viral after he shared it on social media recently. One Instagram post has more than 130,000 views. The Knicks lead the San Antonio Spurs 2-1 in the best of seven series. The teams play again Wednesday.

Buffalo named Donald Trump for his golden locks is a sensation at a Bangladesh zoo

  • By AL EMRUN GARJON and JULHAS ALAM - Associated Press

A rare albino buffalo named after U.S. President Donald Trump for his distinctive blond tuft is drawing crowds at a Bangladesh zoo. Previously the animal raised in a farm was saved from being slaughtered in a ritual of sacrifice during the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha last week. Authorities ordered that the buffalo be spared over security concerns after a surge of public interest stemmed from social media hype before the festival. The animal had already been sold, but the authorities refunded the buyer and sent the buffalo to the national zoo, where it is now the main attraction.
