Description: Stephen Crane (a.k.a. Steve Crane, Steven Crane) started out as bit actor in Hollywood in the 30's and became better known for being one of Lana Turner's ex-husbands than for any of his roles. Realizing his limited acting skills, Steve Crane turned his charm and energies to the restaurant business and in 1953 bought out 'The Tropics' in Beverly Hills. Taking his cue from Trader Vic's and Don the Beachcomber, Steve created his own Polynesian themed restaurant 'The Luau'. The restaurant quickly became a hit and a 'must see' Hollywood celebrity hot spot. Eventually Steve Crane would be approached by Sheraton to create a Polynesian themed restaurant for the hotels to compete with Hilton and their association with Trader Vic's.

Description: On July 16, 1977, over 20,000 country music fans gathered at Brush Run Park in St. Clairsville, Ohio for two full days of music from legendary country artists as Jamboree in the Hills. The event was very unique, but not just because the biggest country music stars would perform on the same stage to an outdoor audience. The really unique thing was that fans could bring their own food and drink to the show. Wagons and coolers, campsites and barbecues, and lots of people having a great time, all backed by life country music. The event would go on to become one of the most beloved country music festivals in America with more than 200,000 fans participating in the perfect combination of music festival, camping trip, and epic summer party.
