Charlotte Loves "The Jesus Saves Guy"

New York has the Naked Cowboy. Charlotte has the Jesus Saves guy. I, along with a lot of other regulars in the city have become quite fond of Sam Bethea​. I look forward to seeing his big smile & hearing his booming deep voice echo through the city, reminding me that I am loved. I remember the 1st time I encountered Sam. He was outside of BofA stadium saying "Jesus saves" and he looked at me, right in my eyes and said "Jesus loves you." I believed him. I replied "I know; he l

Baseball Is Back In Uptown

This Monday morning started off with Chicago-like temperatures. Fingers crossed it warms up before tonight's game. The Charlotte Knights take on the Chicago White Sox tonight in their 4th exhibition game since 2015. The White Sox and Knights began their affiliation during the 1999 season. The affiliation is the fourth longest in their league and runs through the 2020 season. As part of the teams homage to the White Sox, the Knights will celebrate their 20th season with a comm

Baseball Is Back In Uptown

How is it that January seemed to be 75 days long, but February seemed to be 12? I can't believe it is March next week!!! On a positive note, that means March Madness and baseball is back! Next Tuesday night, BB&T Ballpark hosts App. State vs. South Carolina. This will be the 1st game of the Sunbelt Rentals collegiate baseball series. You can purchase tickets here. The Knights play their first game of the season on April 12th vs. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders. The first pit

If The Walls At The Daily Tavern Could Talk

🎤Sweet dreams are made of cheese, who am I to diss a Brie? Charcuterie board for the win last night! I stopped by The Daily Tavern, a watering hole that opened in December to catch up with a friend. We snacked on this yummy charcuterie board and beef jerky in a Mason jar. The menu was outstanding; I love that it’s not typical bar food. The Daily location has soooo many fun memories for me. Where are my Charlotteans ? In 2000, The Rhino Club opened in this space and was pret

Carolina Theatre Uptown - Renovation Update

I did a small story last year on the abandoned Carolina Theatre located in Uptown Charlotte. The building was set to be renovated and they were planning to add a high-rise hotel at the corner of 6th and Tryon, where the tucked away 'pocket park' sits. Construction has begun on the new $42 million hotel above one of the oldest standing landmarks, the historic Carolina Theatre at Belk Place and I am excited about this. For years this building has been just sitting there...waiti

When Collabs Go Right

Sometimes you get an idea in your head and making that idea transfer to reality is not always successful. This was not the case on Saturday. I had been wanting to collaborate with photographer Eben Patten for some time now so we finally got a date in place, recruited local makeup artist Miriam Anthony and had my friend Dion fly his drone to capture the shoot. We lucked out and it was a beautiful NC sunny day. My goal was to showcase spots where local art was displayed. There

A Scoop Girl’s Guide To Charlotte Brew Pubs

Recently I was asked to contribute a blog to Scoop Charlotte on breweries. Check it out: Contributed by guest blogger & general girl-around-town Jenna Gribble. Check her blog at HelloImJenna.com: Craft beer and brew pubs seem to be everywhere I look. Everyone is making their own beers these days. So when the scoopcharlotte Editor asked me to find out about Charlotte’s Best Brew Pubs, I figured fine. Then, I thought, wait, what exactly is craft beer? To define what an Amer
