All the crazies in the world were either in Richmond or tweeting about it on social media yesterday, and the Missed Connections this week aren't exactly sane either. Is this what we have to look forward to in 2020? At least while the world burns we'll have plenty of Craigslist posts to burst into uncomprehending laughter over, right? Not sure...

Here's our comprehensive A-to-Z list of everything great that's happening around town on New Year's Eve, to help you say goodbye to the 2010's in proper fashion! 2020 is fast approaching, and as usual Richmond has a number of great events that can guarantee anyone a great New Year's Eve. Below are our picks for some of the top events in Richmond...
Richmond’s Santa Bob isn’t your traditional Santa -- and with in his delightfully down-to-earth personality, he makes Christmas extra-special for each child he meets. Christmas season is upon us again, the so-called most wonderful time of the year. But for local professional Santa Claus Bob Saintsing, known as Santa Bob while on the job, it’s...
Christmas time is here, and New Years Eve will be here soon after. But y'all, please do not find your ride home from the holiday season's wild parties in the Missed Connections. This ain't the Edgar Winter Group, and there's no such thing as a free ride. OK, now that we've got that warning out of the way, let's enjoy the week's highlights, from...
