We travel west on old Hwy 90 just as he did in the song with his black sheep uncle stopping at some very colorful establishments along the way. Cards are gathered as we go.

Our 2nd stop will be at The Old Mill located at 6391 Hwy 90 Theodore AL. We’ll be there from1:30 – 2:30. ***Note: This stop is a CASH BAR ONLY! *** The Old Mill has been on every TABPHC Annual Poker Run and looks forward to us stopping by.

We used to stop at the “State Line Bar” (not the real name) on the line between MS and AL, but there was a fire that closed this place down. There’s not much left at that site anymore.

Over the river we go into Pascagoula to the River Road Boat Club located at 4755 River Road, Pascagoula, MS. We’ll be there from 3:00 – 4:00 pm. Have your bug spray handy for this stop.

After grabbing a quick bite to eat, we’re headed over to the Singing River Yacht Club, located at 3900 Beach Blvd., Pascagoula, MS. The perfect location for Parrot Heads to grab a tropical beverage from 4:30 to 5:30 pm.

Racing to the end to collect your last card is Bozo’s 2.5, located at 2012 Ingalls Ave., in Pascagoula, MS. We’ll be there from 6:00 – 9:00. We also finish our poker hands and prepare to celebrate our club birthday with good food and great people.

The registration pot is split so that the best hand wins 40%, the worst hand wins 10%, and the remaining 50% donated to the Make-A-Wish Mississippi.

50-50 Raffle will also be available

All told, these events always produce elated participants. Designated drivers and car pooling is encouraged. Come join us. Bring friends. It’s a great time.
