OK, so Olympic Pizza is the only place to eat in Readville for anybody, never mind Olympic athletes (unless you count the Dunkin' Donuts across the street), but now we know where Simone Biles would eat if she made a wrong turn getting off 128 and got horribly lost, thanks to the billboard on the Hyde Park Avenue side of the place (or maybe she really loves their curly fries).

Needless to say, the underpass, decades old and built of stone, won the battle.

He said he went across the street to alert his neighbor, who got out a flashlight and the two began looking around when they spotted another rat. Read more.
