Beer Belly Open Mic

Sunday night Texas Hold'em at Meeting House Tavern — free, beginner-friendly, and zero pressure.

Learn the ropes, meet table friends, compete for prizes, and score bonus chips when you bring someone new. No gambling, no stress, just a damn good game night.

The circus rolls into Dorothy for a night of pure spectacle — puppetry, buffoonery, sex appeal, and just enough delightful chaos to keep things interesting. This is the kind of event that reminds you why you love this community: weird, bold, unapologetically fun, and designed for everyone who's ever wanted to see a lesbian circus.

Sunday nights at SoFo Tap belong to anyone with a mic and the guts to use it.

Bring the confidence; the bear community will bring the cheers. Free, 9pm to 1am.
