So for any of you who don't know about the 'Seattle PI' here's the basics of it as told by Wikipedia

"The Seattle Post-Intelligencer (popularly known as "the P-I") is an online newspaper and former print newspaper covering Seattle, Washington and the surrounding area. The newspaper was initially founded in 1863 as the weekly Seattle Gazette and later published daily in broadsheet format. The P-I continued print publication until March 17, 2009, when it became an online newspaper. The P-I is well known for the 18.5-ton, 30-ft neon globe atop its headquarters on the Elliott Bay waterfront, which features the words "It's in the P-I" rotating around the globe and an eagle perched atop with wings stretched upwards. The globe was conceived around 1949 in a readers contest to determine a new symbol for the paper. In the time since, the globe has become a city landmark that to locals is as iconic as the Space Needle. A stylized rendering of the globe appeared on the masthead of the newspaper in its latter years and continues to be featured on its website. [link] "

April 1 2009, The local radio station 102.5 KISW decided to 'report' that the huge globe on top of the old building was missing. Listeners quickly caught on to the April fool's joke, and called in saying they 'saw it in the bay' or 'rolling down Mount Rainer' from that, the station decided to launch a contest, to see who could put the globe in the strangest place. Given the history and recent closure of the Newspaper due to the economic crash and the popularity of online news, I hope you can all join in with me saying "You Maniacs!...Damn you all to Hell!" as I put the globe on the Planet of the Apes.
