Casino Aztar and the city of Evansville shared a bond even before the casino opened in December 1995 as the state's first riverboat casino. The replica steamboat, which was required to cruise on the Ohio River until 2002, isn't named Aztar - instead it's officially known as the City of Evansville.
A West Side pastor is scheduled Monday to present to the Evansville City Council an anthem written for the city. According to David Nicholson, president of the Evansville Elite Soccer Club, the text was written by Matthew Frick, vicar of Trinity Lutheran Church. It was first sung by the church's pastor, the Rev. Wade Butler, at a ceremony of the Veterans Invitational Soccer Tournament. Bear in mind that the tournament was held here just after the devastating Nov. 6 tornado.
At first glance, the current discussion about smoking bans in Evansville and Vanderburgh County seems to be an inconsequential chess match. The players are Democratic County Commissioner Troy Tornatta and Democratic City Councilman Dan Adams, who, at the very least, have put the issue out there for public deliberation. But the consequences of their maneuvers may be merely academic. Any significant outcome would be determined by six members of the City Council -- a majority -- who seem satisfied with exempting bars, taverns and restaurants from their smoking ban on public places.
