The Bash At The Bay was filled with events for everyone. We had been kinda stressed lately, so the Comedy Show is exactly what we needed. Originally, the show was supposed to feature Pierre and Rolland “Lil Duval” Powell. However, Lil Duval was a no show. Fortunately, Bill Hill, T-Ray and Black Coffee were funny enough to make the crowd forget about the missing comic. Headlining the show was Pierre, who performed over 45 minutes of hilarious new material.

Unfortunately, by midnight the Toledo Police Department had closed the doors of Gator’s Nightclub preventing individuals from entering the building. This left approximately 2,000 people outside.
