The Miss America Pageant is featured on the Ten Great Places to Find True Americana List

Miss America Pageant

Las Vegas

"Beauty contests are an American staple, but this is the Super Bowl. McKechnie says the event has enjoyed a renaissance of popularity since moving from Atlantic City six years ago. There are three days of preliminaries before the finals in the pageant (the next one is Jan. 26-30), and tickets are sold for each round. "One night they do talent, one night evening gowns and so on, so it is pretty easy to buy tickets. Whatever they choose to do for the talent show they do very well, so the quality of the performance is as good as any show on the Vegas Strip." Tickets go on sale in December." 609-653-8700, missamerica.org,

When I went on the Miss America site I was really excited to see this article posted and talking about how great beauty pageants are. Most of the articles I read on a daily basis, are discussing how bad pageants are and how much of a negative affect they have on little girls, but I truly believe that Miss America, has great intentions! Look at all of the volunteer work she does, and how she reaches out to communities to help! Go online and purchase tickets!!!!! Support Miss Minnesota!!!!!!! Go Brooke!!!!!! Wow, what a great way to publicize the Miss America Pageant. I am very glad that this was a positive article and how it stated that this is a popular event! I know tickets are on sale!!!!
