Selina Pankovich is the owner of Butte's iconic M&M. She bought it three and a half years before the fire on May 7, 2021.
With the eyes of Butte Rats around the world on her, Pankovich opened the new M&M in the building next store. It cannot possibly replace the old M&M, but it definitely has that M&M feel. It has the M&M spirit.
Listen in to hear how Pankovich, a 1993 Anaconda High School graduate, got into the bar business in the first place. Listen to hear how she heard about the horrific fire that rocked our community.
Listen to hear how she handled such a tragedy and how she made the best out of such a horrible situation.
Stay until the end to hear Chad Okrush's song "St. Patrick's Day at the M&M."
