Last month I reported on a rare opportunity to get Uncle Lou’s Fried Chicken without having to leave Downtown, at Africa in April. Well, if you missed it then, you’ve got another chance. They’ll be a vendor at BBQ Fest, in the center food court section. Hmmm… even though I’m on a team, I may have to spend a little money on food at Uncle Lou’s this year.
Time for beer and tube top watching!
