Well, that was one wild and varied news week.

Over the course of seven days, controversy swirled around the Tejano Music Awards, we learned of new retail and entertainment developments around the San Antonio area and Mayor Ron Nirenberg walked out of a council meeting while Palestinian activists spoke during the public comment period.

All of those things and more were among the Current‘s most-read news stories of the week.

However, Wemby Fever topped this week’s list. A story about a San Antonio home’s Halloween yard display, which included skeletal body doubles for No. 1 draft pick Victor Wembanyama and a bevy of Spurs legends, ended up racking up the most reader visits.
