years ago, the mummers would perform a show a convention hall. do they still have a shoe after the parade?
You are talking about the Show of Shows. I keep hearing rumors that they want to bring it back. I keep hearing that if it comes back it will be in Philly, most likely at Sugarhouse Casino, but I don’t know any details right now. They tried to bring a version of the Show of Shows back in 2017 called “Strutfest”, but it was cancelled unexpectedly.
