Description
Back in the Fifties, Newport KY was as sin-filled as Vegas. The Alibi Club was an African-American gambling joint owned by Screw Andrews. In January of '52, Screw and his competitor, Melvin Clark, had a little shoot-out and Screw's pit boss was killed. Screw figured that Clark would get time in the big house for murder but Newport justice being what it was, he only got 18 months probation for carrying a concealed weapon.
We're not honoring the shooting, but we couldn't pass on an opportunity to pay homage to someone named Screw! This one's for you, Screw.
