The Best Blackouts Start in Northeastern Ohio



Come celebrate Blackout Day August 14 with
Doug Kaufman at Rico's in Brimfield!


At 4:00 p.m. on August 14, 2003, a squirrel in Kent dropped an acorn onto an aging powerline and suddenly 55 million people across the Northeastern United States and Canada realized that without electricity, steaks go bad, beer gets warm and radios go silent. At 5:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 14, 2011, you can pay tribute to those hungry, thirsty, weary souls at Rico's Restaurant and Sportsbar in Brimfield.

The steaks (and other delicious food) will be hot, the beer (and other beverages) will be as cold as the State of Ohio allows, and Doug Kaufman will be playing and singing great songs from the past 7 decades on the patio from 5-9. And for added authenticity, I will be playing every song on an acoustic guitar.

There's cornhole games, darts, putt-putt and basketball, so bring the kids, too! With great food, great drinks and great fun, we'll be able to relive the fun of the Blackout of 2003 without, you know, all that looting and stuff.

You were probably at work the last time this happened - don't make the same mistake this year!

Doug Kaufman Returns To Rico's March 11


Going Back To Rico's

March 11, 537: The Goths lay seige to Rome
March 11, 1917: The 1st NHL Championship Game is played.
March 11, 1986: NFL Adopts Instant Replay

What do these things have in common? Obviously, March 11 is the perfect day for a party! And on March 11, 2011, the party returns to Rico's Restaurant and Sports Bar. I'll be playing the songs you know the words to from 8 p.m. to 11:59 p.m., with something for everyone.
Like country music? I play some of that. Current hits? Got 'em. Oldies? You know you'll hear some of them. Sing-alongs? You betcha. Katy Perry music? Eh, not so much.

But you CAN get the great Rico's food and terrific ice cold beverages, served by Brimfield's friendliest waitresses and bartenders. Join your friends or make new ones!
