The Peabody is celebrating its 140th anniversary today. The original Peabody opened in a different location on Sept. 1, 1869. It moved to the current location in 1925. The celebration will be from 4:45 to 6 PM today. Fifteen musicians from the Memphis Symphony Orchestra will play Big Band music created especially for the Peabody in the 1940s. I think I read somewhere that there will be cake too. Free cake? Wonder if the Nuh-Uh Girl will show up.<\/p>\n

There will also be a celebration of September 1st at South of Beale<\/a>. They will have “901 on 9\/01,” for Justin Timberlake’s new 901 tequila. The bartenders have created some special cocktails using 901 which will be $5 all night long – the 901AM, the 901PM, the Matador, and the Love Stoned.<\/p>\n

Just saw a tweet from Sole Restaurant in the Westin inviting everyone to their patio tonight… “Buy a burger and beer and we’ll give you a burger and beer for free!” Free food? Wonder if the Nuh-Uh Girl will show up. She re-tweeted it almost immediately, so she definitely knows about it. I wonder if there’s a #freefood hashtag on Twitter.<\/p>\n

Question from a reader – any bars running specials for Sunday’s Memphis vs. Ole Miss game? The reader wants to know if there are any bars that are predominately Ole Miss. I want to know too, so I can make sure to avoid those bars.<\/p>\n

Congrats to Gary on his appearance in the Flying Saucer calendar, which I picked up last night. Didn’t know Gary’s nickname was “G-Rock.” Each month featured a different Saucer – the UFO member with the most plates posing with a few of the girls from that location. One of the Saucers had someone with 24 plates!!! That’s 4,800 beers! Wonder what color they use for plate number 24…<\/p>\n

Here’s a pic of Gary with the calendar.<\/p>\n

Tonight I’ll be back at the Saucer for team trivia. Really looking forward to it tonight.<\/p>\n

And finally, here’s an Onion article to further entertain you – Unstable Relative, Toddler Compete for Attention at Family Get-Together<\/a>. That’s all for now. See ya!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
