Drink For a Good Cause...for once
On any given night, you might go out and knock back a few with your buddies. You start having some fun and you knock back even more. Before you know it, somebody is calling you a cab as you hurl all over your spiffy new shoes.
Now, how does this little bit of debauchery help the city? Or, a charity? It doesn't. Well, maybe you helped a local business with your booze purchases, a little. But who else did you help? Fucking nobody, ya drunk.
Tonight, it's time to turn your debauchery into charitable giving.
Come check out our own Devoya Mayo (hey, one post qualifies as a blogger here) as she battles DJ Heinz in a Bartender Challenge starting at 6:30 at Palomino's in the Tower District. They make your drink, you give them a nice tip, and that tip goes to Creative Fresno's mural project.
Not getting this challenge thing? Here's a better video explanation of what a bartender challenge is all about.

It's a good thing I just checked this out, I was just going to post something about it. Shameless self promotion is a favorite pastime of mine.Instead I'll just post a wrap-up edition.

Fail: Ed.

I was having dinner and tea at my mom's.
Is that not a good enough excuse?

The tea thing is kind of cute, actually. You get a pass on this one, Adam.

Yes. I was there Ed. Just ask the Beehive, Famous and FresnoCentric. Hopefully the event inspired Devoya to post about it.
What say you Devoya?
