According to legend, the creation of the potato chip is associated with Saratoga Springs. The legend holds that a diner visiting the restaurant Moon's Lake House in Saratoga Springs in 1853 was unsatisfied with the texture of the fried potatoes he had ordered and sent them back to the kitchen multiple times in protest. The chef, George Crum, allegedly became so annoyed with the customer that he sliced the potatoes much thinner than he usually would, covered them in salt, and deep fried them. The customer was finally satisfied.[1]

Urie has also been involved with several songs and other projects by former labelmates Fall Out Boy.

Urie also was featured on the Lil Dicky track "Molly" on his debut studio album Professional Rapper. In 2016, Urie's vocals were featured on the track "It Remembers" off of hardcore punk band Every Time I Die's album Low Teens[2]

On April 11, 2017, Urie announced that he will star in Cyndi Lauper's Tony Award winning Broadway musical, Kinky Boots, in which he will play one of the lead roles, Charlie Price. He will be playing the role from May 26, 2017 to August 6, 2017.[3]

In February 2017, Urie moved out of his home in Los Angeles, California, to an undisclosed location. He said the move was to get away from excessive attention from his fans. He also said that he did not feel safe in his own home.
