Weekend happenings: Ralphie May

Comedian Ralphie May, born in Chattanooga, Tenn., and raised in Clarksville, is taking a whirlwind tour through Arkansas this week, Eric E. Harrison writes in Thursday’s Arkansas Weekend section.

He performed Wednesday night in Fort Smith; he has a sold-out show at 8 p.m. today at the UARK Bowl in Fayetteville. And he’ll be headlining a show for fans 8 p.m. Friday at Robinson Center Music Hall in Little Rock, before heading Saturday to Memphis.

Many of those will be coming from Clarksville, where his single mom raised him and four siblings in the ’70s.

“I’m looking forward to seeing so many buddies from high school. I’m really excited,” he says.
