The Hot Club
THE HOT CLUB
WHERE HEARTS ARE ON FIRE
BUT IT’S NEVER TOO HOT
FOR THE DEVIL MAY CARE
575 South Water Street
Providence, RI
A patron last Wednesday night on the marina side of the Hot Club threw an empty beer bottle into the water. Buffalo Steve and Mike Module saw this transgression and were none too happy. I asked Buffalo Steve what an appropriate penalty would be – “Joining it”, said Steve.
Mike Module pointed out that the guy who littered the water was wearing a Yankees cap. Mike said, “I thought that explained the whole thing.”
Overheard at the Hot Club: Bags is about to turn 50 (Wed.). However the consensus is that Wise looks younger than Bags. Well the consensus was 4 out of 5 with one person abstaining. And that’s with Bags looking younger since he got rid of the ‘porn moustache’.
Wise said that it was a great career move for Michael Jackson to die. Well for his estate.
Our condolences to Fleet Feet Pete whose father recently passed away. Fleet Feet’s father favorite bar was Lewis’ and since he couldn’t drink a lot of beer, the bar created a special half draft called a ‘Romeo draft’ in honor of Pete’s dad. After the funeral, Fleet Feet Pete and company went into Lewis’ and ordered 14 ‘Romeo drafts’.
Wild Bill told me that the most famous grad of RPI in his year (modestly he excluded himself) was Bobby Farrelly. Wild Bill said that Farrelly majored in geology.
I saw the Farrelly Brothers one time on Gene Lavanchy’s late night sports program (Ch. 7 I think). They bemoaned all the negativity in sports writing, wondering how you could turn something that was fun into a downer. That appearance inspired me to write Sportzine.
According to my spies, Mark Bellhorn was at the Hot Club the night that the Red Sox released him. I remembered his homerun to win Game #1 of the 2004 World Series against St. Louis. The Wakefield start.
Hooks’ cousin just opened a restaurant with David Ortiz on Route 9 in Framingham, Mass. It’s called Big Papi’s. Naturally.
A woman on the deck yelled “Firefighters! They have big hoses.”
