On April 11,Easter eve, also the fourth night of Passover,at Michael's Lounge (Myspace.com/MichaelsLounge), in Kingston, Pennsylvania, entertainer 'Sophie Tucker' anticipated the arrival of the Easter Bunny by hosting an Easter Hot Buns Contest. Six contestants, five men and, in a first for Michael's, one woman vied for a $100 cash prize. After regaling the crowd with "Never Wear Panties to a Party (if you want to have a really good time)" and, from "Chicago," Mama Morton's "When You're Good to Mama," Tucker invited audience applause to determine a contest winner. The result was a tie between two of the male contestants, numbers two and five, whose names were not given, and these contenders split the prize money.
