Question: What bar in a Florida fishing village wards off hurricanes with a Spam sculpting contest?
Answer: Little Bar Restaurant in Goodland
Southwest Florida’s tiny fishing village of Goodland has a population of about 400 and a hurricane season party. Every June, the Little Bar Restaurant throws the Spammy Jammy to mark the end of tourist season, kick off hurricane prep, and, most importantly, let loose.
It’s a pajama-clad bash that blends live music, pantry-stocking, and Spam. Spam isn’t served at the party or even on the restaurant’s menu—it’s sculpted. The event’s centerpiece is a sculpture contest, where locals mold Spam into wild and whimsical creations with classic Gulf Coast flair.
