80. King Richard III, Parking Lot Ghost

Hear ye, hear ye, the king is dead; long live the king, primarily beneath a parking lot. "A pasture! A pasture! My kingdom for a pasture!" But lo--t'was not a pasture to be.

This is the story of King Richard III, the parking lot ghost of Bosworth Battlefield. Come for the ghost, stay for faux-thers and foe-thers, lawnmower sigils, Taki fingers, penguins vs zombies, foot strings, the Newarke bus to York, Blockbuster vodka, and Edwards and Richards for days and days.
