TUPELO, Miss. (WTVA) - The City Council voted 4-3 Tuesday night to ask the state for permission to include liquor in its alcohol sales on Sundays.

It's not known if or when the state Alcohol Beverage Control will allow those additional liquor sales.

The Columbus City Council voted in September to allow Sunday liquor sales, and ABC approved that the following month.

The Tupelo City Council approved Sunday sales of beer and light wine back in September.

Tampa, Florida – Showgirl extraordinaire, Schevelle and the ubiquitous Tony Batman pack up their suitcases and head out for a four night stand at The Pony in Starkville, Mississippi, appearing Wednesday, October 21 through Saturday, October 24, 2009.

Celebrating his most recent win at the Tampa Nightmoves Awards, Batman praises the effectiveness of the honor, “My first cool gig after being named Emcee of the Year by the voting panel, is taking me to Starkville, Mississippi. I want to thank Art Koch and the rest of the great folks from Nightmoves magazine for this honor and how it has elevated my career so quickly!”

Never one to rest on his laurels, Batman is bringing his A-Game to The Pony. “Schevelle is an outstanding performer and we have put together a high energy, non-stop visual and audio extravaganza for her 2009-2010 show tour. She is a phenomenal dancer and is very audience oriented. Rated as one of the top showgirls on the circuit today, Schevelle is always in demand and I am proud to work with her. These guys in Mississippi won’t know what hit them. I have a feeling they will be talking about this show until we make it back there in 2010,” said Batman.

The Pony is located at Highway 45-ALT in Starkville. Call the club for showtimes and more information (662)494-0954.
