    Sponsors splashed poolside in private cabanas at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa, then glammed up for Martinis for Moffitt, now in its 18th year. The event was hosted by Bay Area Advisors, a professional and philanthropic men’s club. Shaken, stirred and ready to party, 900-plus guests danced to four musical acts: Kaelin Ellis; one-man dance band TL Jentgens; Mix Master Mike of Beastie Boys fame; and DJ Fresh, who auctioned 10 bottles of Dom Perignon for $1,500 each, all popped and poured on the spot.

    Mmmm. And it only cost $250,000.00 to throw the party & other incidentals. Everyone feels like they contributed…. it’s a joke on the non profits. If you have money to give, give it. Don’t waste it on ticket prices to attend a rubber chicken dinner.
