Pluto T-shirt Sales Spike in Wake of National Media Coverage

With last week's climactic New Horizons Pluto flyby and the accompanying firestorm of media coverage, that included references to Streator, Ill. in some reports, Streator Tourism has seen a spike in sales for "Year of Pluto" T-shirts to people from around the country.

Tourism Director Ed Brozak said about 100 T-shirts have been sold and requests have come from New Jersey, Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa and Illinois.
