Things were happening last night at Club Cazuela on Fortification Street. It almost reminds one of The Dock.

Trollfest '09
Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.
Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).
Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.
Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".
In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.
In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.
Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.
Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!
This is definitely a Beaver production.

Trollfest '07
Jackson Jambalaya is the home of Trollfest '07. Catch this great event which promises to leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards.

Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.
There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.

Looks like a group of people having a good time. No guns, no fighting...what is the purpose of posting this?
“We must keep our streets, neighborhoods and historic areas clean and pristine,”
to 9:41...cause thats very rare .
What's wrong with showing people having a good time? So negative.
@9:41 what is the purpose of complaining about folks having a good time?
I feel sad sometimes that I was a little underage kid who never got to experience The Dock. I remember older kids, seniors when I was a freshman in high school, who went! It seemed like an epic place. I wonder if that little section of the reservoir will ever be developed. A history of the Harbor Walk project would be neat to learn.
"A history of the Harbor Walk project would be neat to learn."
Do a search on this site for "Harbor Walk" and enjoy.
"A history of the Harbor Walk project would be neat to learn."
The developer spent a lot of money, bought and tore down a lot of piers including The Dock, fleeced a lot of investors and then I think he got old or sick and died.
Cha-ching, the soda can lottery grift.
No, he didn't fleece anyone. He overpromised a pie in the sky development. Tore the Dock down, built new slips. He made enough money off the slip rentals to pay the lease, but not enough to develop anything.
Speaking of the Dock, does anyone know if the guy who kicked Oogie (can only remember his nickname) to death there is still serving time?
Barron Goff, he's doing life at CMCF.
Robert Herman "Oogie" Carson JR's obituary: https://clarionledger.newspapers.com/article/clarion-ledger-obituary-for-robert-herma/82902674/
Not quite like the Dock. Nobody was packing or twerking back then. Just a matter of time before shots are fired!
22:49......his name was Barry Goff. Colonel Barron Goff was his father, a Army aviator who flew many missions into the battle Ia Drang valley, Nov '65 as a Huey pilot. His son Barry tarnished his name several times when arrested in & out of state.
2:49, 2:30 here; thanks for the name. I googled it and a JJ post from 2009 came up with all the details. Oogie was a fixture at Delta State women’s basketball games back in the mid-70s during their run of national championships. Alway carrying a clipboard so he could take notes on the game. Small in stature, he was harmless and kept to himself. I can’t imagine the level of depravity required to kill someone like that. It’s comforting to know Goff is still safely locked away.
I grew up in Cleveland and went to most of the DSU football games. Oogie was a fixture there, walking back and forth, mumbling and writing notes in his program. We kids would ask him a stat about the game from time to time and were amazed he knew it. I was very sad to learn that he had died.
Yes it was sad with the passing of Oogie. Unfortunate to see the demise of The Dock. However, after a Saturday "Day camp" on the edge of reservoir just north of the overlook on the Natchez Trace, I'll tell you this: the kids with boats are getting together at the overlook and having a good time just like the old days of The Dock.
A little too loud for my liking. I will stick with Cazadores and El Torrero.
Grew up with Oogie in Belzoni. I think he was what would be diagnosed today as functionally autistic. Really smart. When I saw John Grisham's movie Rain Man, Dustin Hoffman's character reminded me of Oogie. He was outgoing and gentle -- never a threat to anyone. It is my sincere hope that his murderer really does serve the rest of his life in prison. Probably won't though.
to 11;11....you want a history of the harbor walk development????????? permit me , ...........the harbor walk was one of the biggest real estate scams ever perpetrated in central mississippi. fortunately for a lot of idiot investors , it got exposed for the scam it was before it ever got off the ground. you didn't know that?????? now you know.
GOFF used to show how tough he was every friday night. now he has to show how tough he is everyday. thank former madison county DA rick mitchell for putting his ass away.
Kingfish's selective memory is showing again. The developer may or may not have fleeced anybody - that won't ever be known. But he did act as king telling people (including me) that we could not fish or be present in the water in that area, having come from the larger reservoir area.
He was a boisterous bully who threatened to physically harm, for example, an old black man who was can-pole fishing and threatening to jail anybody who came near the water near the site of the old Dock.
He even rented sleeping quarters to a derelict, transient on a boat he (the developer) did not own. The man was a tyrant who, on many occasions, deserved the ass-whipping he never got. And his son later threatened to whip anybody who spoke ill of the old man.
A short Google refresher on the Oogie murder turned up info on a lawsuit filed by Goff alleging he was assaulted by Department of Corrections personnel during a cell sweep. Lawsuit was dismissed with prejudice. How ironic.
John Grisham's Rain Man? Did you see that on the internet and just believed it?
Oops. I goofed. Thought Grisham wrote that. Sorry.
