Summer is arriving in Florida and things are really heating up! The returning tourists are looking for a hot time, and Al’s gang has the perfect solution. Skip the afternoon heat at the parks or beach and opt for a matinee show instead.

A matinee show at Capone’s Dinner & Show has everything an evening show offers. It is a great way to have a mid-day meal, a few drinks (included in the cost), and be entertained for a couple of hours. After the fun, you’ll still have plenty of time to enjoy another attraction, avoiding the heat of the day.

Heat Wave History

It may seem hot now, but did you know? Almost every year from 1930 to 1938 featured historic heat waves and droughts somewhere in North America. This era was part of the Dust Bowl years. In fact, the heatwave of 1936 was one of the most severe in our history. It caused over 5,000 deaths. Without air conditioning and a lack of moisture (dust bowl), many state and city record high temps were set that year. It was followed by one of the coldest winters on record.

If you are looking for other ways to beat the heat, the wise guys wrote a great article. Check it out, then be sure to order your matinee tickets. The earlier you order, the better the seats.

Don’t let the summer heatwave stop you from having a great time. Beat the heat. Attend the matinee show and stay cool!

The pandemic has created a lot of madness. It was just last year in mid-March things were shutting down. Stay at home! Wash your hands! Wear a mask! “Social distancing” became an everyday term. It was the start of a new type of madness for us. Protests, riots, heated elections, and other maddening things are happening all around us. News flash… maddening things have been going on throughout history.

Other Historical March Madness

Here are just a few of the interesting historical events that have taken place in the month of March:

• March 5, 1770 – The Boston Massacre occurred.
• March 6, 1836 – Fort Alamo fell to Mexican troops.
• March 10, 1862 – $5, $10 and $20 bills began circulation in the U.S. Mad cash, anyone?
• March 5, 1868 – The attempt to impeach President Andrew Johnson failed by just one vote.
• March 11, 1918 – Spanish influenza first reached America.
• March 1, 1932 – The 20-month-old son of Charles A. Lindbergh was kidnapped.
• March 30, 1981 – President Ronald Reagan was shot.
• March 24, 1989 – The oil tanker Exxon Valdez ran aground.
• March 19, 2003 – The U. S. launched an attack against Iraq to topple Saddam Hussein from power.

One More Historical Example

Additionally, let’s take a look back at March 1933. Newly elected president, Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an act permitting the manufacturing and sale of low-alcohol beer and wines. Later that year the 18th Amendment was repealed. Prohibition was over.

If you’d like to experience what was going on prior to this date in history, step back in time and make reservations at Capone’s Dinner & Show. Get into the prohibition era and count down to a little March Madness of your own. Don’t sit on the bench! This offer expires on March 31, 2021.

Bring the Entire Team

Groups are welcome at Al’s joint. Sweet sixteen? No problem. The wise guys and gals can accommodate large parties. Not ready for that? Bring your starting five, or maybe a final four, or a championship of two. The gang will seat you at your own table.** Then let the madness begin.

Finally, check your attitude at the door (wise guys will be refereeing and don’t want you to be foul), say the secret password, and enter a new type of madness this March. One that will have you singin’ a song, tappin’ your feet, and lettin’ the madness of the outside world march on! It’s a slam dunk you don’t want to miss. This special deal is an offer you can’t refuse!

*plus tax & gratuity. Valid through March 31, 2021. New reservations only.

**Mid-march Update: On busy nights, parties may now be sharing a long table with other groups of people. If this lack of spacing is of concern to you, please notify us at the time of your reservation. Request a private table (near the back). We will attempt to space guests as much as possible. We are thankful for the return of guests. Thank you for your patience as we begin this transition to normalcy.
