November 4, 200421 yr Folks -- IT IS FOR CHARITY!!! 150 per person is reasonable for a charity event like this. Trust me.
November 4, 200421 yr Yea, it's for charity and I am sure it's a lot cheaper than other events out there but right now some of us can't pay $150 per person. I am sure I can afford it if I knew about this sooner.
November 4, 200421 yr Author My thoughts first were wow that's alot..but i realized its for charity so I'm actually thinking about going. It's for a good cause and well it should be fun.
November 4, 200421 yr Well the $150 goes to charity after deducting the cost of the event (food, drinks, rent, staff). The real charity money comes from the silect auctions.
November 4, 200421 yr I wish I lived down there. That sounds like a lot of fun even if it is a lot of money. Goes to a deserving place, and its a memorable experience.
November 4, 200421 yr i would LOVE to go but my parents are as broke as it is, so i cant go besides rather than paying all that i have my ways of meeting him after a game or at fan fest
November 5, 200421 yr Hey, I have a question. Do you know if you have to be 21 to actually attend the event? Thanks.
November 5, 200421 yr Author You can go to the site and email The Agency. They got back to me within a couple of hrs. Very nice people. The next day the golf tournament will be held at the Biltmore Hotel Golf Coarse in the Gables. Maybe they allow you to watch for free? The golf coarse is everywhere so I don't see how they could stop you? I think it's going to be fun the whole Casino thing..I heard they'll even have blackjack!
