Now you have plans for the weekend
You need plans. Fat City has a recycle bin full of listings. In this post, all our problems are solved.
The Johnson County Home and Garden Show comes to the Overland Park Convention Center today through Sunday. Gardening, kitchen and home-decor tips abound. The show is 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday. Tickets are $8.50 with a $1 discount for a Price Chopper Shopper or Ace Rewards Card — the box office will be cash only.
Westport’s Main Street Tobacco hosts a free hookah demonstration every Saturday from 2 to 4 p.m. You can not only learn the proper way to use a hookah, but also discover just how good a mixture of tobacco and dried fruit can smell.
The PBR Poker Race kicks off at 3 p.m. on Saturday. You ride your bike between five bars, purchase a Pabst Blue Ribbon and receive a poker card. The best poker hand wins $150, with second- and third-place hands taking home $75 and $25, respectively. It’s no Little 500, but it will take some endurance and tolerance. Register as a race participant at the Broadway Cafe for $5.
Entries for the 11th annual 2010 BarStool Open are closed for the Brookside course, but you can still cheer (or jeer) the competitors at Saturday’s benefit for United Cerebral Palsy. The pub crawl involves costumes, putters and “nine-hole courses” of miniature golf at bars in Waldo, Westport and Johnson County.
