Mezo has been selling bagels to the late-night crowds since 1983 and has since become a local legend.

The track is home to a group of radio-controlled car enthusiasts who meet on weekends to practice and race against one another competitively inside a large gymnasium owned by fellow racer Andy Wallace. The gymnasium houses two tracks for the sport — one off-road and one on-road — for different classes of cars. The off-road track is constructed mainly from plastic piping, wood and carpet. Wallace, the owner of the building, said the space is also used for community events. While competitive, Wallace said, the races essentially amount to grown boys playing with toy cars.

The 19-year-old is owner of At Your Service, a party bus company that specializes in tours along the Shawnee Wine Trail. Guetersloh, a second-year student at John A. Logan College, bought the bus in November 2015 with the intention of doing tours, and offered a special deal during Polar Bear weekend, an annual party for SIU students, that jump-started the small business. He gave rides to people on the street who flagged him down for $1 apiece. The teenage business-owner said that he wanted to make sure no one mistook him for the Saluki Bus — an error some made in January 2016. “They were asking me where the swiping thing was and told them ‘It’s a dollar,’ he said. “It was just kind of funny though because they were so confused.
