Mystery Sticker #15 SOLVED!!
Not sure what station this "Channel Z 105 FM" (or is it "Channel 105 Z FM"?) sticker is from. There's a chance it might have been from 105.7 WZAZ which was licensed to Hilliard, Ohio and known as "Channel Z." Anybody who knows for sure gets a free Thanksgiving turkey!*
*Offer not valid in the United States, Canada or anywhere else.

Bills vs Bengals
Went down to Paul Brown Stadium today to watch The Buffalo Bills play the Cincinnati Bengals. Lowly Buffalo finally managed to get their first win last Sunday while Cincinnati went into the game with a 2-7 record. Despite this crappy matchup, SuckBowl 2010 turned out to be a very entertaining game. After trailing 28-7 at one point in the second quarter and down 31-14 at the half, Buffalo scored 35 unanswered points in the second half to destroy the Bungles 49-31. It was the 10th straight time Buffalo has beaten Cincy dating back to 1989. Go Bills!!
Me and the boy enjoying the rout in a nearly-empty stadium as the Cincy fans hit the exits.
I saw this billboard while walking out of the stadium. WEBN has been a Rock station in Cincinnati since 1967 when they pioneered the album rock format. They are, in fact, the longest running AOR station in the country. EBN's mascot has been a frog since the early 1970s and is so ubiquitous and deeply rooted within the branding of the station that lately their stickers have foregone call letter and frequency and are simply a froghead. WEBN is also the flagship of the Cincinnati Bengals along with WLW and WCKY.
WHAM is a News/Talk station from Rochester, New York.

WLOL
I recently saw a personalized license plate that said "WLOL" and immediately thought of the now-defunct CHR station from Minneapolis, Minnesota. I took a picture of the plate but I hesitate to post it cuz it's probably illegal without the permission of the owner.
Aw, screw it...here it is.
WLOL (W Land Of Lakes) was a massively popular Top-40 station in the Twin Cities from 1981 until 1991. A bunch of classic WLOL airchecks and videos can be found here. 99.5 FM is now KSJN, the flagship station of Minnesota Public Radio's classical music network.

Switchfoot "This Is Home"
Tristan Prettyman "Hello"
Secondhand Serenade "Fall For You"
Thea Gilmore "Teach Me To Be Bad"
Elin Sigvardsson "Where To Start"
Communards "Don't Leave Me This Way"
They also broadcast top-of-the-hour news from a London-based news service. Station liners were in accent-free English but there were no DJs in the time I listened.
