Jacko Rotto

Of course Michael Jackson came to Perth. But did he ever make it to Rotto?

He won the swim-thru, of course, but other evidence is scant. We'll keep searching.

This story had Rottnest up there with the King of Pop: read about Jacko's demise putting Google under the pump. The interest in The Gloved One was "volcanic". But:

'New trains and trams for Melbourne pipped Jackson's death at The Age and dodgy weather on Rottnest Island causing ferry cancellations was more popular in WA.'

Good to know Sandgropers have their priorities right.
