Another Evansville business has closed its doors for good today.

We have seen a lot of businesses forced to close permanently over the past year. Many business owners have struggled with keeping their doors open throughout the pandemic. Whether it be because of being forced to not have in-person dining at the start of the pandemic, product shortages, or more recently labor shortages. The labor shortages have been a topic of conversation over the past several months. You would be hard-pressed to not drive down the road and not see a help wanted sign at many businesses. A company can only go so long without adequate help before it's forced to make a tough decision.

One Evansville business just had to make that tough decision. Spudz-N-Stuff announced on social media that they have closed both locations today, after thirteen years in business. As you know, Spudz-N-Stuff was home to a variety of specialty baked potatoes and other items that were all delicious. They had several locations in Evansville and one in Newburgh at one point. The last two remaining locations were on Washington Avenue on Evansville's east side and Boonville New Harmony Road on the north side.

Evansville Blacksmith Forging His Own Path in the Tool Making World

Hidden in the woods off the backroads of Evansville's west side sits a barn. In that barn are the tools and equipment Benton Frisse, who appeared on season six, episode 27 of the History Channel series, Forged in Fire, uses to forge tools and knives he sells to people all over the world as a blacksmith. While a few of the tools he uses are the same that blacksmiths have used for hundreds of years, he does employ a few more modern pieces of technology to help him move metal and turn blocks of steel into functional tools.
