A local man, Snollygoster, made headlines yesterday when he sold his beloved 50-inch flat screen TV in order to purchase a replacement remote control. Snollygoster, a self-proclaimed ‘TV enthusiast,’ had been using the same remote for over a decade and was devastated when it finally broke beyond repair.

According to Snollygoster, the remote control was irreplaceable, and he couldn’t bear the thought of using a universal remote or purchasing a new TV. So, he made the bold decision to sell his TV and use the proceeds to buy a new remote control.

The TV was sold for a modest price of $300, with Snollygoster stating that it was worth it for the sake of his “TV viewing experience.” The new remote control cost $25.

When asked about his decision, Snollygoster said, “I know it sounds crazy, but my TV is my sanctuary. I can’t imagine watching my favorite shows without the perfect remote control in hand. It may seem like a small thing, but it makes all the difference.”

Snollygoster’s story has caught the attention of many, with some praising his dedication to his TV viewing experience, while others have criticized him for his decision to sell a valuable item for a relatively small cost.
