Billy Joel to play grand opening of new Fallsview theatre in February

Fourteen years ago he was the first act to play the new theatre at Caesars Windsor’s new 5,000-seat theatre. And in three months, Billy Joel will play the grand opening of the new 5,000-seat OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member and one of the biggest-selling artists in the world will perform Feb. 25 at the $130-million venue.

Richard Taylor, president of Niagara Casinos, said Joel coming to Niagara Falls shows how the new theatre will “enhance the entertainment landscape of Niagara.”

Ray Pinneault, chief executive officer and president of Mohegan — the service provider for the city’s two casinos — said Joel and Mohegan have a longstanding relationship.

“We look forward to watching our old friend grace the stage at this show, and to many inspiring, exhilarating, unforgettable performances that will undoubtedly follow.”

Niagara Falls Mayor Jim Diodati was thrilled to hear the music icon is coming to town.

“This will send out a global message that Niagara Falls is back and better than ever,” he said.

“What a great amenity for locals to enjoy world-class talent right in their backyard, without having to go to Toronto or Buffalo. This is just the beginning.”

Joel is currently on tour and also has a monthly residency at Madison Square Garden. In the spring he starts a series of shows with Stevie Nicks.

The six-time Grammy winner has sold 160 million albums worldwide. His 1985 collection “Greatest Hits – Volume I & II” is among the biggest-selling albums ever in the U.S.

In June 2008, Joel played to invited guests at Caesars Windsor’s Colosseum theatre. It as part of the venue’s $439-million makeover to compete with Detroit casinos.

Fallsview Casino’s new theatre was originally slated to open in the spring of 2020 before it was shut down by the pandemic.

A Scottish surprise at The Downs

WILKES-BARRE, PA — Dashing through what was soon to become a heavy snow, 19-1 shot Scottish (Kadabra) caught the 1-5 favorite Street Smarts very late to win the $15,000 featured harness racing trot on the next-to-last card of the year Tuesday afternoon (Nov. 15) at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono.

Scottish and owner/trainer/driver David Hoover (Curtis Salonick Photo)

Owner/trainer/driver David Hoover was far back for most of the mile with the gelding and was still 5¾ lengths behind at the three-quarters, four lengths back at the stretch call, and not much closer by midstretch, as Street Smarts had cleared after a first-up journey and looked to be home. But Scottish and Hoover never gave in and stepped by the chalk by a half a length in 1:57, a new mark despite the unfavorable conditions.

SCOTTISH REPLAY

Scottish was the only closer to win in the frigid conditions at Pocono on Tuesday; the next-closest thing came in the $15,000 featured pace, when the He’s Watching gelding Greystone Watchman backed out of the pocket after 47-1 Pink Floyd Hanover cleared the pacesetter late on the far turn, then went on nicely to defeat the longshot by 1¼ lengths in 1:54. Braxton Boyd drove the eight-time seasonal winner, coming off of only a three-day rest, for trainer Herbert Lux III and owner Robert John Becker.

Anthony Napolitano visited the winners circle three times to lead all drivers during the card.

Pocono will race its final card of 2022 this coming Saturday at 1:30, with a $25,000 fast-class pace topping the fourteen races. Also, leading trainer Ron Burke and leading driver Matt Kakaley will be feted for their excellent seasons at the mountain oval. Further, there will be a $1018.20 carryover for…

Let the pickle hunt begin: Mohican Historical Society preps for 2022 games

Who’d have thought a pickle hunt would evolve into a much-anticipated community event?

It’s happening in Loudonville, where the Mohican Historical Society is gearing up for its 10th annual hun. The society, borrowing on a very old and not very well-known tradition of hunting for pickles at Christmastime, has turned it into an exciting and entertaining, tradition.

In many towns, the holidays often bring about excitement for tree lightings, parades and Santa visits. In the villages of Loudonville and Perrysville, those holiday activities are taking a back seat to pickles.

More specifically, residents are looking for pickles. The pickles, though, come with prizes.

Superintendent’s resignation examined:Loudonville-Perrysville Superintendent Puster, board explain resignation decision

The Pickle Hunt is promoted by the Cleo Redd Fisher Museum and sponsored by nearly a dozen businesses.

According to the museum’s curator, Kenny Libben, the event has century-old origins rooted in a Victorian-era tradition of hiding a pickle in the tree on Christmas morning, with the first child to find it receiving an extra gift.

Pickle clues are highly sought-after by game players

Though that tradition has largely faded away, it is once again popular, at least in the Mohican area, Libben said. The current version of the pickle hunt was developed by the museum nearly a decade ago, first introduced at private events where, Libben said, “It was a fun game that quickly became the focus for attendees.”

Seeing the positive response, the museum launched a community-wide pickle hunt with new pickles hidden throughout December, leading up to Christmas, and clues to their location posted on social media.

Libben said the rules are simple: A pickle is hidden, or “dropped,” somewhere in the Mohican area and a clue is posted on the Facebook group The Pickle Hunt. The first clues are vague, only giving a general…

What is a Wendigo? The Beast with an insatiable Hunger for Human Flesh

The Wendigo is a horrifying creature of Algonquian Native American legends said to devour human flesh to survive a harsh winter. But are they only part of Native American mythology or are there really cannibalistic humanoids waiting in forests for their next victim?

The Algonquians are some of the most extensive and numerous of the Native American groups in North America , and they once lived all along the Atlantic Coast and the Great Lakes Region. However, Wendigo-like creatures are also found in the legends of other Native American tribes, including the neighbors of the Algonquians, the Iroquois. Amongst these peoples, a creature known as the Stonecoat bears some similarities to the Wendigo. But, what is a Wendigo?

Have you ever asked yourself “what is a Wendigo,” this is a depiction of one. ( creepypasta.wikia.com)

A Wendigo’s Insatiable Hunger

Roughly translated, the word Wendigo (also spelt Windigo and Windego) means “the evil spirit that devours mankind.” Another translation, said to be made by a German explorer around 1860, equates the word Wendigo with “ cannibal.” Wendigoag are said to have an insatiable hunger for human flesh – no matter how much flesh they eat, they remain hungry.

This hunger is reflected in their appearance, and accordingly the Wendigo are described as being extremely thin. Despite their gaunt physiques, Wendigo are described by some as giants, measuring at about 4.5 m (14.8 ft) in height.

Whilst there are slight variations as to the physical description of this creature amongst the different Algonquian peoples, it is generally agreed that Wendigo have glowing eyes, long yellowed fangs and long tongues. Most Wendigo are also said to have sallow and yellowish skin, though others…

Buffalo controlled the game’s opening faceoff but came up empty on their first possession as Jamieson stuffed Tehoka Nanticoke at the net. After multiple empty trips by both teams, Nanticoke opened the scoring by putting a shot just outside of Jamieson’s left leg. Minutes later following a timeout, Tanner Thomson knotted the game back at one as he sniped one into the back of the net from deep. On the ensuing possession, newly acquired forward Connor Kelly dove across the crease and went over the left shoulder of Matt Vinc to give the FireWolves their first lead of the night.
