There will be a Festivus celebration tomorrow night at the Mad Earl starting at 8. The Seinfeld-inspired holiday celebration will include the airing of grievances, feats of strength, burlesque bingo, and a ukulele performance. It will also be a Master Chef Junior watch party, to cheer on local kid chef Logan who has made it to the finals of the show. In addition, it will be a chance to say goodbye to Clay and celebrate the past two years of his version of the Mad Earl before he moves to Maui.
