Redskin Mascot Retirement Push; New Concert Venue in Fishtown; Nightclubs Pay 7 Mil Settlement

A high school in Delaware is at the center of a debate over the school's mascot and nickname. For the last 80 years Conrad High School has used the name Conrad Redskins and many alumni are resisting the "retire the mascot" committee. Native American mascots have already been phased out by more than 2,000 schools and sports teams in recent years.

Philadelphia is getting a new concert venue in Fishtown. In fact, two under one roof. House of Blues entertainment will open the new Fillmore on Delaware Avenue across from the Sugar House Casino. The new venues will hold 2,500 people and include a private club, bars and restaurants.

Two defunct Philadelphia nightclubs have agreed to pay $7 million to settle a wrongful death suit filed by the family of Temple University graduate Kevin Kless who was beaten to death in Old City by three drunk men. The clubs, Lucy’s Hat Shop and G Lounge, allegedly served the three men – two of them underage -- past the point of intoxication. The men, are currently serving prison sentences for their roles in the 2012 killing.
