ICE CUBES: The Mighty Macs DVD release party

Last October, my father and I hung out at the Philly Style sponsored Kimmel Center screening event for the world premiere of The Mighty Macs, local director/writer/producer Tim Chambers’ film based on hard charging coach Cathy Rush and the true story of the 1971-72 Immaculata College girls’ basketball team. We sat in the theater with a bunch of nuns from Immaculata and, I have to say, never was such drunken revelry more apparent — Flyers and Mummers drunk, I’m talking. OK, I kid, sisters. More like Philadelphia-soul boozy.

Still I couldn’t help but wait patiently for the DVD release party for The Mighty Macs and that happened at The Independence Seaport Museum at Penn’s Landing on Tuesday night. Chambers met with guests ranging from Philly film-and-cheesesteak king Tony Luke Jr. and his Concrete Blonde pal, Top Chef Jen Carroll, and film org maven Sharon Pinkenson and a klatch of local television news-ters. That doesn’t sound half as drunked-up as the first Mighty Macs party, but, then again, I’m guessing a lot of liquor-loving nuns might have sat this one out.
