Has also received coverage in the Chicago Sun Times and several blogs. The entrepreneur has her own blog: http://gingerambition.tumblr.com/
Personally, I think she should combine this idea with "Taxi Cab Confessions." Make the big bucks. The video is a LOL and marginally NSFW:

Eh, it's ok
Who would think to search there for this? I threw it in there because I thought it was amusing, but wasn't sure it was worth it's own thread (so some "open entertainment"). Today seems a bit slower...I might have put it up yesterday but there seemed to be a lot more ontopic posts then. Thanks for pointing it out, but if enough people think it's worthy of it's own discussion, I'm game. I thought it was pretty funny, and worth seeing the town in the background.

Also a few on-campus crimes before DPS reported them to students, if they did at all (ie. Chem Building gunman and shooting by Thompson parking structure).
I wasn't taking it as complaining, or even being snarky
I just wanted the OP and you to know even though I posted it first, I didn't mind seeing it again, and furthermore I couldn't blame a guy for not looking in a game open thread for walk of shame videos. Not exactly search friendly.

Your
presumption is that I was posting it as "news"? That this thread is nothing more than a juvenile "FIRST, LOL" post?
I'm willing to bet more readers have been made aware of this content through this thread, than through their chance discovering it while perusing an unrelated and outdated thread.
Which is beside the point, entirely. The thread is created to allow readers to contribute and discuss the item of interest. Try it some time.

Happy/Sad
I'm happy for the girl for all of the publicity she's gotten for this over the last two or three weeks, but It's a little disappointing because that publicity is what has lead to her actually having to apply for everything that goes along with having a real business. It makes it way less funny and way more annoying for her than her intentions were.
I didn't laugh

Looking forward to Kellyann's next vid.
Your opinion has no value.

That video was far better than I expected. I would totally sign up to be a driver for this.
I am an old married hag, but when my family was in town for the Husker game, I told my younger relatives that I would stay up and pick them up after bar time. When I pulled up to the curb, I reflected how it had been YEARS since I was amidst of crowd of drunken revelers stumbling out of a closing bar on South University and dare I say I felt nostalgic -- and maternally protective. It was butt cold and if my car was bigger I would have packed it full of loud drunk freezing people to take them to their destinations in warmth. I wouldn't even charge extra for the obligatory stop at Taco Bell.
Of course the first time a passenger puked, I suspect my enthusiasm for this endeavor would be quelled.

This is one of those ideas I wish I thought of myself, and she is surprisingly pretty funny as well. Also my old house made a cameo in that video.

What I find interesting about
What I find interesting about this business model is how the hell she plans on keeping it solvent. The Night Ride is financed by the AATA. Otherwise, it would not be possible to charge a mere $5 to shuttle drunks around town.
How is she covering her costs? Perhaps her provision of $5 Morning-After pill coupons may entitle her to some kind of subsidy through U of M, WCPH, or some such.

I totally read this wrong
I thought it said Walk of Shame Shuffle. I got half way through and started to wonder when the dancing and raping was going to start.
"Pride Stride" Shuttle she could double her clientele!

I thought the BTB Party Bus was a great idea, fixed prices around AA? I know people who would have used this for sure.
