Natchez to Host 3rd Annual Bigfoot Birthday Bash This Weekend
SUMMARY: Bigfoot enthusiasts are set to celebrate the creature's birthday in Natchez with events starting on Friday, Nov. 17. There will be a meet and greet at Natchez Little Theatre, followed by the play “Bigfoot's Revenge.” The main birthday celebration occurs the next day at Bluff Park, offering free admission, live music, food, an auction, vendors, and a photo opportunity with Bigfoot. The event ends with a Sasquatch Symposium, featuring Bigfoot researcher M.K. Davis.

SUMMARY: Pascagoula residents are celebrating the return of the beloved Orange Slush to Edd's, an iconic drive-in eatery. Edd's, founded in 1953, had to discontinue the Orange Slush in 2020 due to the manufacturer stopping its production. After extensive efforts, Edd's, led by Jennifer Brimm, found a suitable replacement through taste tests with familiar locals, including the author. Now, with positive feedback and preparations in place, the Orange Slush is back for summer. Edd's, a community staple known for its burgers, fries, and a nostalgic gathering spot, has restored a treasured favorite for locals and returning expatriates alike.
