Caliente Contest
The undisputed king of electric
blues is scheduled to play to a
packed audience Friday night at
Centennial Hall.

BB King is one of the most well-
known living blues musicians in
the world, and certainly the most
famous person to ever come out
of the tiny town of Itta Bena,
Miss.

The 2000 census pegged Itta
Bena's population at about 4,000
residents living within a 1.5
square mile area.

Yet the town still managed to
make it into the 2000 Coen
brothers film, "O Brother, Where
Art Thou?"

In the movie, a notorious
gangster terrorizing the the
Deep South stops George
Clooney's character Everett and
his crew and asks them how to
get to Itta Bena.

Name the gangster and the
actor who played him for a
chance to win a set of three
cookbooks.

Star reporter Coley Ward covers nightlife. He's on a quest to know the first name of every bartender in town. When he's not working and out on the town he orders a whiskey ginger. When he's at home he drinks home brew. His favorite dance song is Tower of Power's "Down to the Nightclub."

Tucson Happy Hours

I’ve put together a list of Happy Hours at bars in town. It’s a work in progress.

What I did was, I went back through all the “Hey, Barkeep” stories I’ve written and copied the Happy Hour info into a new document.

Pretty smart, eh?

In the future, every time I write about a new barkeep, I’ll add the Happy Hour info to this list.
