The rain in Evansville on Thursday couldn’t completely wash out the money pouring into the West Side Nut Club Half Pot at the Fall Festival. In the last minutes of the night, the half pot inched right over the $1,000,000 milestone. The Nut Club was able to reach this monumental amount thanks to the drive-thru ticket booths that were set up a couple days before the festival took off. Tickets will be sold during festival hours today and Saturday.
