Dickey's Celebrates Grand Opening with Special Guests

One dollar for pulled pork sandwiches and barbecue cookbook giveaways drew a large crowd to Dickey's Barbecue Pit on Lewis Road Friday as they celebrated their grand opening. 

Radio station personality Andi Summers and her co-workers from WXTU 92.5 was there to hand out magents and stickers and give away tickets to see Montgomery Gentry next week. 

Company chairman Roland Dickey also visited the store from Dallas, Texas, where it was most certainly much warmer than the 40-degree temperatures. 

Dickey gave away autographed copies of his Mr. Dickey's Barbecue Cookbook: Recipes from a True Texas Pit Master to the first 50 people who came into the restaurant today. 

Three people also won a year's worth of barbecue - one voucher per week for a free meal, for 52 weeks.
