Description
🌏Article
A famous bar on the island of Key West, Florida, has had its 40th Ernest Hemingway look-alike competition.
The contest takes place each year at Sloppy Joe's Bar, which Hemingway once frequented, though it was cancelled in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Over three nights, more than 130 men — all with beards and dressed like Hemingway — took part in the competition. They were judged by previous winners, including Joe Maxey from Tennessee who won in 2019.
The winner of the 2021 competition was 63-year-old Zach Taylor from Georgia. Like Hemingway, Taylor loves to hunt and fish. But what made Taylor's win special was that his father-in-law, who has since died, won the competition in 2000.
The look-alike competition is part of Key West's Hemingway Days festival, which takes place around the writer's birthday on July 21, and celebrates his life and work.
The festival also includes a short story contest, which was won this year by Madison Bakalar from Massachusetts with her story So This Is How We Go. Bakalar beat 784 other stories from American and international writers.
Hemingway Days includes a number of other events too, such as the Key West Marlin Tournament and a literary walking tour of the island.
