Top 10 Reasons to Attend the Oyster Roast (Tuesday, October 25th)
10
Can finally hear Southern Gothic/Folk music, courtesy of THE RESTORATION. Incidentally, I have it on good authority that the lead singer reverentially keeps a rather huge Freddie Mercury Action figure on his desk at work. This is an undeniably good sign.
9
Bid on a near-mint copy of The Amazing Spider Man #252 (circa 1984). If I have to tell you how drop-dead fantastic this is, chances are you may bid on the luxury Cabin Smoky Mountain weekend getaway instead.
8
Have you senses turned upside-down by the curious juxtaposition of Southern plantation ethos, penguin monomania, roasted bivalve mollusks, and Halloween décor.
7
See man in penguin suit. (Somehow this will be VERY different from all the other times you have witnessed this.)
6
Meet Mr. Ron Naveen, conservationist, penguin scientist, CEO of Oceanites, author of several conservation books, lead investigator for the Antarctic Site Inventory, and Lindblad Expeditions/National Geographic Hero of the Planet. He will undoubtedly encourage you to recycle.
5
If you have been to both the Okra Strut and the Oyster Roast, you will now be fully versed on all aspects of high Irmo culture.
4
Get a postbellum vibe from an antebellum home.
3
See legitimate, actual works of art created by Gentoo and King penguins. Not kidding.
2
Get a tax deduction for eating oysters. Seriously.
1
As a resident of a positively sweltering state, you can bask in the raw irony of fostering Antarctic conservation.
