Aliens spotted in Tel-Aviv

Our Frug Street Chronicles photographer brings this exclusive footage of aliens marching down a certain avenue of our fair city.

These lovable celebrity life forms, famed for their Facebook adoption campaign, might be planning a SECRET GLOBAL TAKEOVER.. or.. maybe they arrived with a tourist group on the 11 am AirFrance flight (our research team is.. ehm, underfunded)

We would like to conclude with a peaceful note to the aliens:

If you come in peace then.. we have a beautiful country with a beautiful peoples and we recommend you check out Efi’s Sabichhhjjj on Chernijovski near Allenby

If not, we recommend Jerusalem.

Too lazy to go to the Supermarket? Too hot to trot to the Drugstore? Not any more.

Water bills too high for tennants?

at 9:45 this morning a naked 20 something year old man was pulled out of Dizengoff Fountain for bathing in the nude in a public fountain in front of dozens of spectators and a Frug Street Chronicles photographer, the police cuffed the “I thought it was a bathtub left by aliens’ man, while still in the fountain, but took almost 20 minutes and 6 officers to pull him out.

The man is believed to have excellent leads to high class drugs in the Tel Aviv central area.

For more info visit him at the county jail in the next 24 – 48 hours

Just a regular ‘nose diving into a parked car’ Saturday afternoon..

12:30 p.m.

A 20+ woman driving a brand new scooter gets hit by an opening car door and then smashes against a parked car on the opposite side of the street. She breaks or dislocates her shoulder and screams for on goers to call her parents living a block away. They arrive running and the father (shirtless with a chest sweater hairdo) while waiting for the ambo tries to dial 100 for the police but forgets the number and is too shaky to dial.

The driver of the parked (rental) car that opened the door is a young american tourist, accompanied by 2 friends, that will probably be booked for parking ON the sidewalk in a non-parking zone (where everyone parks) and catapulting the chain of events.

A 3rd car was massively damaged by the injured woman’s unwilling leap into.. it

Hello Frug!

From our headquarters at 23 Frug we are the voice of Frug.

This small street located in the heart of Tel Aviv (unknown even by half of them) has in the last couple of months witnessed some extraordinary events, which have consequently led us to undeniably conclude that Frug Street is in fact the parallel microcosmos of Planet Earth.

As such we, the newly appointed committee, have taken it upon ourselves to post semi-live coverage of this all important street and would like to start off by stating some of the highlighted events of the recent months:

The attempted stabbing of a burger delivery guy on a scooter by a presumably unsatisfied by his wife cab driver in front of building 30

The hostile takeover of the ‘I will fight over my unused parking spot till I die french hag’s penthouse by a production company filming channel 2′s new season of the famous TV series…

Building 19′s Friday night performance of: ‘Drunken father and son fight turned family feud rooftop extravaganza’ highlighted by ‘Squad car siren symphony’ screeching up the wrong side of the street at 2 a.m. and encored by the all favorite: ‘The cops have gone and done nothing so we will keep making baboon sounds till 5″

Today we begin a convenient coverage of ‘Frug Strasse’ (an affectionate term used by residents)
