Up-to-the-minute political tidbits as well as a look at the past millennium will highlight the zany and satirical Tulsa Press Club Gridiron when it is held March 17 and 18 at the Tulsa Convention Center.

The March 17 show will feature auditorium seating, while the March 18 show will be presented in conjunction with a banquet.

During a recent tasting luncheon at the center, Fine Host executive chef Jacques Lissonnet presented a preview of salads, entrees and desserts that will be served at the dinner.

Those attending included Tom Campbell, Gridiron chairman; D.J. Morrow Ingram, chairwoman-elect; John Simmons and Jim Roberts, dinner coordinators; and Dick Risk, treasurer of the Tulsa Press Club.

Fine Host executive chef Jacques Lissonnet shows off a piece of Gridiron cheese cake like that that will be served when the Tulsa Press Club holds its Gridiron and banquet March 18 at the Tulsa Convention Center. Looking on are Gridiron chairman Tom Campbell and D.J. Morrow Ingram, chairwoman elect. The show will also be presented March 17 with auditorium seating.
