Argosy Casino is now the new Hollywood Casino - and to celebrate, they hosted a Marilyn Monroe Look-Alike Contest on Fountain Square!

Contestants spoke for 30 seconds and did a runway walk. After a final parade of all contestants, our three judges carefully chose the winners.

Congratulations to Lesley Hitch, Best Overall winner. She took home a grand prize of $500! $250 each went to Melissa Combs for Best Appearance and Pamela Jo Hostetler for Best Acting. Thank you to all of the ladies who participated, without you this event wouldn't have been a success!!

The Marilyn Monroe Look-Alike Contest was the second of four "Freaky Friday" events sponsored by Hollywood Casino this summer. The next Freaky Friday will be a Coney Eating Contest on Friday, July 24, 2009 presented by Camp Washington Chili.
