In August of 1988, two college juniors named Tim Keck and Christopher Johnson founded a satirical newspaper. They called their creation The Onion, published it for about a year, then sold it for $16,000 likely never dreaming that it would grow into one of the comedy worlds most venerable institutions.

25 years later, the paper has become a national juggernaut one that shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

I recall reading it at Der Rathskellar over a pint and the local R&B styling. Madison, Wisconsin was a fun city back then. I wonder why they moved to NYC?

Because theymos moved to Madison.
