Birdy Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 So i'm organizing a high-end charity event which is basically a glitzy cocktail party with both a live and silent auction. The event will raise money for the Antique Automobile club of America. I'd like to incorporate some kind of games in the event which will give all the shmoozers something to do other than stare at each for a couple of hours.Does anyone have any ideas as far as games to raise money go?

SmoothedShredder Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 I've noticed Ultimate Wrestling and Pride Wrestling taking over some of the poker slots on the sports stations... If you want to get with the times... maybe you should throw an octagon in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdy Posted September 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 QUARTERS! perhaps you missed the whole 'high-end' part of the post. Too bad those damn Americans don't have twonies! Hello BIG TIME!er.. there's some great ideas here *cough*... lol.. i especially like wheelbarrow races and sumo suits... maybe i can do sumo wheelbarrow races? that'd be cool.I think the poker tourny is a good idea but takes too much time.. maybe a few black jack tables. Now i'm leaning towards flame blowers and magicians... we'll see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birdy Posted September 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 Yep. Stuff is displayed for people to place silent bids on.. normally say a piece of artwork is up for auction, a sheet of paper would be on a table and people would come up, put their names and their bid amounts on it... and the list grows with people topping one another's bids.
