The combination of outrageous and funny patter (we got the family version, wonder what the adults' only is like!) the collection of brightly painted hermit crabs and the intent faces of the participants sitting around the table make this wonderful. Even better, the emcee is careful with the small creatures, handling them gently even as he's making joke after joke.... More

The crowds made it a little tough to enjoy. The kids didn't understand why some people got to sit at the table and others didn't. It's good for a few laughs, and all for a good cause, but we wouldn't go back.

I got sucked in by reviews to do this event while staying at the Tween Waters Inn. First, we were told we must have a dinner reservation to participate, so we sat for nearly 1.5 hours and ate so-so buffet food before the event got underway.

If you have thin skin don't go to the late races , Sunburned Willie , can really work the crowd , no one is safe. It's hard to explain how watching a bunch of crabs crawling on a table , espeically when you don't know which crab is yours can be so much fun.

The early show was very good complete with a buffet for the kids while the late show for adults only was a blast. The MC can be rather rough at times, it is not for those with sensitive ears. There is some cussing and occasional ridicule that is all in fun.
