Odd Jobs: Mermaids in Montana [View all]

GREAT FALLS — Some jobs make a bigger splash than others. In Great Falls, Montana, there’s a place where the magic of the sea meets the rugged landscapes of the West—the world-famous Sip ‘N Dip Lounge at the O'Haire Motor Inn.

On this episode of Odd Jobs, I dive into the unique profession of a Montana mermaid, meeting Jipsea the Mermaid, who has been captivating audiences from behind the glass for over two years.

“I moved to Great Falls a few years ago, and the job was open,” Jipsea recalls. “I was like, cool. I’ll be a mermaid. Sure.”

The Sip ‘N Dip is legendary for its underwater performers, who swim in a glass-walled pool behind the bar, bringing fantasy to life for patrons sipping on tropical cocktails.
