Tube Top Month will happen as scheduled, and Brick is ready.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With the Mississippi River forecast having been revised today for a crest of 48 feet on May 10, a number of people have emailed me out of concern. They are worried that an event that has become a Memphis institution might be affected. We want to post and dispel that rumor before it gets out of hand.<\/p>\n

Tube Top Month will occur as scheduled,<\/strong> beginning on Friday, May 27 at 5:00 PM. It will not be canceled due to river flooding. It will not be postponed. It will not be moved to the fairgrounds, or Shelby Farms, or the Agricenter, although if anyone wants to take a photo of themselves wearing a tube top in any of those locations and send it in, they are more than welcome to do so.<\/p>\n

Tube Top Month is a celebration of the greatest women’s fashion statement ever. It used to be held from midnight June 1 through 11:59 PM June 30. However, in recent years it has been expanded to include the weekend of Memorial Day and the weekend of Independence Day. It will be back, it will be business as usual, and it will be better than ever.<\/p>\n
