"Scrambling" for Eggs

See the headline there? We're so punny:

• Children dressed in their Easter best set off on a hunt for candy-filled eggs on Saturday in East Garfield Park.

  Parishioners at Harvest Worship Center Ministries spread out thousands of colorful eggs for their annual “Easter Eggstravaganza” at Altgeld Park Hope Field at 515 S. Washtenaw Ave.

  Children of all ages raced to collect as many eggs as they could, filling their colorful Easter baskets.

  Now in its 13th year, the parish-run event also featured food, games and music for children and their families.

Readers of the blog will recall a few years back that Altgeld Park is the location where a suburban school had come in to play football against local school, and everyone ended up on the ground as gunfire rang out a few yards away from where children were playing. The suburbanites were appropriately shocked that such a thing could happen - not being aware that the 011th District led the city in homicides most of the past forty years....and led the nation in per capita violent crimes on more than one occasion.

The kids were obviously "scrambling" to get their share of the eggs before the "Shots Fired" calls started up. Again.
