Waiter/Bartender works great if you think you would like it. $100-200+ cold hard cash after a shift always feels nice 
Schedules are very flexible too, someone is always looking to pick up or drop a shift.

I'm looking into getting into Building Inspections, part-time.
Having previous experience in construction management, many areas in PA are getting new uniform building codes established. The "new" industry this has created is causing many vendors that do the inspections to hire new inspectors.

I do concert production on the side. Did it all through college, paid for my CFI ratings by doing a promotional tour for Home Depot. Now I'll typically drive the artists from their hotel to the venue and go get stuff (99% of the time it's alcohol) during the show. Sometimes I'll get a little more involved and do some actual stage managing or production stuff but driving is easy, no BS, and ok money for a few hours of work.

My buddy works for a venue in town. I did it a bunch in college and made contacts through that.
Not as neat as you think. Most of the time it's a lot of tough work, heavy lifting and whatnot. The artists are usually either up and coming and think their poo doesn't stink, or their washed up, coked out and bitter. Still an easy job but it's not anything like you'd think it is.
