Beauty, we ‘Miss’ed you!

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ — Miss America, Atlantic City’s prodigal pageant, is coming home, and the spectacle that became synonymous with the New Jersey seaside resort is being assured all is forgiven after a six-year fling in Las Vegas.

The pageant will be back where it started 93 years ago and where it was a fixture until 2006.

“It was always my dream that this would return here,” said Art McMaster, president and CEO of the Miss America Organization.
