Hoot Owl Fest
Hoot Owl Fest
I got an invite to the hoot owl fest this weekend. Is anybody else going and what exactly is it?
The Hoot Owl is a get together up at Lake Albermarle just North of Vicksburg. It actually takes place at a metal building just off the edge of the MS River Levees around Tri-County Hunting Club. It is an annual event beginning about 2-3 pm Saturday and usually consists of massive beer drinking, cooking, music, and a Hoot Owl Calling Contest. The cooking usually includes crawfish, catfish, hushpuppies, slaw etc... The climax of the event is the famed "Hoot Owl Calling Contest" beginning around dark or so. At the end of the night (around 9-10 pm) awards are given out to people who have been deemed "the most drunk", among other things. But if you don't win this award, fear not, there are other awards to be won. All and All, it is a worthwhile experience.
WARNING: DO NOT BRING YOUR WIFE/GIRLFRIEND. IF YOU DO SO, YOU WILL BE CUSSED BY ALL THE FOUNDERS/ATTENDEES OF THIS EVENT AND FORCED TO LEAVE.
I'm not kidding either ! I've seen it happen.
