The Grazers

What better time than February to get the pots bubbling with a chili cook-off? Chiliocracy, a recurring fundraiser for WORT-FM, returns for the first time in a few years. Attendees vote on chili cooked by local restaurants, and the event takes the opportunity to add a bit of a shot at our political system: your vote can count more than the “average Joe” with a higher donation. Music will be provided by string band The Grazers.

media release: WORT’s Chiliocracy is BACK at the Harmony Bar on Sunday, Feb. 4, from 1 to 4pm for a cookoff like no other!

The Grazers will keep your toes tapping as you sample chili from area restaurants in a battle to decide the Supreme Commander of Chili.

Our early candidates: Baldwin Street Grille, Dotty Dumpling’s Dowry, Harmony Bar, JustVeggiez, Mickey’s Tavern, Rotunda Cafe, Weary Traveler (2 teams!)

It’s Political Mockery Served In Crockery! Enter as an Average Joe: $10 for samples, a plastic spoon and a voting chip. OR…Be a Lobbyist: $25 gets samples, a 5x Blue voting chip and a real spoon. Everyone gets a voter’s notebook to keep track of your favorites.

Who Will Be the Supreme Commander of Chili? Will the Lobbyists Sway the Election? Come to the Harmony on Feb. 4 and exercise your rights! All proceeds benefit WORT Community Radio.
