St. Valentine’s Day Massacre at Blind Bear at 9; Blind Bear poker to start early at 7

Just a quick reminder that the St. Valentine’s Day Massacre party at Blind Bear happens tonight at 9. There are two ways to get in free: Dress as a 1920s gangster or flapper, or dine at the Majestic Grille beforehand (reservations required) and get a password. $5 cover for everyone else. Moonshine shots, jello shots. DJ BCON and MLW. Costume contest at 11 with $50 Bear Bucks as prizes.

Also a reminder that Tuesday night poker at the Bear will happen, but the start time will be at 7 rather than 8, and Jamie will increase the blinds a little faster than usual to get it done by 9. You get an extra point toward the long-term standings if you show up in costume. Jamie told me that he is considering an iPad as the prize for the long-term winner.

Got news, but it will have to wait for my after-work post. I’ve got to run over to Southaven and try to find a tie to go with my gangster costume. I hear Sammy’s Man of Fashion over on Airways might be the place to go. In this evening’s news post: Redbirds news, info on how to win Grizzlies tickets, and possibly more.
