Hey hustlers,

Other than encouraging everyone to vote I try to stay away from politics on this blog, but the latest changes in the race to the White House have made me a little more optimistic about the future.

August is Montgomery Riverfront Brawl Month

August 7, 2024 marks the one year anniversary of the Montgomery Riverfront Brawl and social media is deeming it a national holiday.

The brawl started when Dameion Pickett, the co-captain of the Harriott II, asked the operators of a private boat that was docked in its space to move, getting only “obscene gestures” and “taunting” in response.
