SUMMARY: Restaurateur Robert St. John is transforming an iconic downtown Gulfport storefront, set to open late summer. After years of demand for his signature dining on the Gulf Coast, he is creating a community café in a 4,500 sq. ft. space formerly occupied by Triplet Day Truckstore. The new location will mimic his Hattiesburg establishment, the Midtown, but with a unique Gulf Coast twist. Plans include extra dining space for civic groups and a nostalgic diner aesthetic.

SUMMARY: Super Bowl weekend kicked off at Hollywood Casino in Bay St. Louis with a pro-am golf tournament featuring 17 professional football players, including Saints legend Ricky Jackson and 12 Hall of Famers. This event sparked a long-standing debate about which team had the better linebacking corps: the Giants’ “Big Blue Wrecking Crew” or the Saints’ “Dome Patrol.” Jackson jokingly noted the Giants’ Super Bowl wins as the differentiator. The tournament also included football icons like Jerome Bettis, Marshall Faulk, Bruce Smith, and Joe Horn. Excitement for Super Bowl weekend permeated both New Orleans and the Mississippi Coast.
