Grabby Awards In Chicago
Memorial Day Weekend always rocks in Chicago, Illinois with the International Male Leather convention and of course the Gay Erotic Video Awards, known as THE GRABBYS.
In 1992, the first Grabby Erotic Gay Video Awards were published in Gay Chicago Magazine. Seven years later, the first live Grabby Awards Show was held at a Bathhouse.
As the Grabby Awards grew, it moved to larger venues and now includes events that span Memorial Day weekend.
Now it draws national attention, dozens of porn stars and spans 4 days of events and parties! They also partner with TPAN and raise money for HIV testing and awareness.
Join us and Brent Corrigan (http://brentcorriganinc.com) beginning Friday evening as we start live blogging about the Grabbys pre-partys, the awards, post parties.
