The Papa Look-Alike Contest

Sloppy Joe's Bar in Key West will host its 28th Annual Hemingway Look-Alike contest July 17-20, 2008. The contest is one of many events in Key West to celebrate the birthday of Ernst Hemingway and honor his work as author and sportsman.

The competition starts with the first preliminary round on Thursday, July 17th, second preliminary round on Friday, July 18th, and finals on Saturday, July 19th.

From each preliminary round finalists are chosen. Last year's competition over 125 Look-Alikes took the stage with thirteen contestants from Thursday night and twelve from Friday night going on to the final round.

Look-Alikes are everywhere, it's a load of fun! Come early, get a good seat and watch the competition.

After the finals, the party spills over into the streets, where the Street Fair on Duval continues with food, drinks, entertainment and fun for everyone!

The infamous Ernest Hemingway Look-Alike Society invites you to join the Society. They will be at Sloppy Joe's July 17th and 18th to sign-up new members.
