White Center’s own Triangle Tavern is holding an ongoing singing contest called “White Center Idol” and they want us to know they have two openings left to compete in the finals, which will start Saturday, May 23rd.

Here are the details:

The tavern formerly known as the MVP Sports Bar, located on Ambaum Blvd. and SW 128th (near the border of the Dub-C and Burien), is now “Twigg’s,” complete with a new paint job and management.

It’s no secret that this building has had its share of troubles (a deadly shooting in May; and in its previous incarnation as the Flame Tavern, is where Ted Bundy met his only Burien-area victim, Brenda Ball).

However, we spoke with William, the new owner’s son, and he assured us they’re intent on cleaning it up. He mentioned an increase in security on weekends, along with new pool tables, TVs, event nights, renovations and more.

“We also haven’t had any problems in two months,” he remarked.

Let’s hope things continue to improve for this place.
