We just love the 10:30 p.m. drag show at Hamburger Mary’s Tampa! When the crazy 7-foot tall blonde Daphne Ferraro is the hostess, you know it’s going to be over-the-top! At one point in her show, Daphne calls guests up on stage to tease them and to do a friendly shot.In a recent show, she pointed to a muscle man and pulled him on stage. He was a really great sport. You can just imagine the surprise after the show when she learned who he was — Chris Hovan,

Tampa Bay Buccaneer Defensive Lineman! Chris was out in Ybor for the night with his beautiful wife, Jaimi and this was their first time at Hamburger Mary’s. You just never know who will be at Mary’s! Over at Steam Fridays @ The Honey Pot the first people we ran into were Kathy and Juanita, owners of the Famous South Tampa
Restaurant, Pach’s Place along with set designer, Mathieu Stanoch. There was a birthday party going on in the VIP area stage left for recently relocated local banker, Walter Giovanni! What a fun group of people. Club owners, Steve Donahue, Ernie Webb and Stephen Moss invited us backstage to meet super singing star Luciana before her concert! She was one of the nicest young rising stars we have ever met! Also backstage was our good friend Andy Bell of Erasure. What started out was a quiet night sure did turn out to be quite interesting. WOW… Viva La GaYBOR!
