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 Hen House Holiday Celebration — a benefit for Harvesters — runs from Friday (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) to Sunday (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.) at the Overland Park Convention Center. Public television’s Katie Brown holds cooking demonstrations on Friday at the food expo and there’s a hot dog eating contest slated for 2 p.m. on Saturday. The $5 admission gets you access to try food and beverage samples, as well as a reusable shopping bag to take home. 
 
If you are still disoriented from Halloween candy, that’s likely the only reason you didn’t know that Kansas meets Kansas State on the gridiron this Saturday.

You might as well be surrounded by hundreds of fellow fans, who you can

cheer with or taunt, depending on your loyalties. That will be

happening in the central courtyard of the Power & Light District,

where the game plays on the big screen above the KC Live stage.

Admission is free, with drink and food specials beneath the heat lamps.
