Mark your calendars for the Greatest Show On Earth! I'm serious about that too! Jason and I have chaired this event for 6 years now! Crazy huh! Well, we wouldn't do it if we really didn't love it! And love it you will, once you've attended!
This event is loaded with more food and fun that you can imagine. Think of it as a tasting of the BEST OF what Fort Worth has to offer. The line up of food is enough to make your mouth water! Now where can you get plates and plates of food, with cocktails to boot for $50-70 a person:
AuSum Fudge - Del Frisco’s - Fire Oak Grill - Mama’s Pizza
Melting Pot - Nothing Bundt Cakes - Piranha Killer Sushi - Rio Mambo
Ruth's Chris - Sweet Tomatoes - Texas de Brazil - The Wild Mushroom
And the entertainment? Well that can't be beat! You won't want the night to end when you're jamming with Pete's Dueling Pianos, laughing it up with Four Day Weekend, in awe of Eclipse Entertainment, and rocking it out to Jurassic Rock. But that's not all! My personal favorite for the evening is when the headliner band Time Machine comes on stage. Even later into the night, try your hand at rock-stardom when Time Machine opens the stage up for LIVE BAND KARAOKE! Just you wait, you haven't seen nothing yet!
Here are what some party goers have to say about the "Best Of" party:
“I always look forward to "The Best Of Party". It's seriously one of the best nights of the year!!"
Erin Carll Daily
"I attended the Best Of Party last year just a few months after losing my sweet baby Nico and I can honestly say that I feared going, but after walking into this magnificent, beautiful party, for that evening I was transformed into feeling like a real women again!! This party was exhilarating and uplifting and I will never forget how amazing that night was!!!"
Tina Ciraci-Velazquez
“The lovely video from 2012 with the multi-talented Christy Smith and her co-star John Zimmerman. Can't remember who those other two people were ☺!!”
Nicole Zimmerman
“My favorite party by far!!! We had such a great time last year dancing on stage and singing with the band!!!!”
Donatella
"We are blessed to attend many social functions in Ft Worth. However the “Best Of” party by Fort Worth, Texas Magazine with out a doubt is the most fun of them all. Every year tops the previous, the action is non-stop and the food is awesome! If you have not attended the “Best Of” party, you are simply missing THE BEST PARTY IN FORT WORTH!"
Jamie Cashion
"The Best of Party is a fun celebration of all the places that make Fort Worth such a wonderful place to live" The entertainment and food is worth going to the party for, it is always a good time!”
AMB
“I went to the Best of Party 2012 and it was awesome!!! The band was incredible that year and we danced the night away!! We saw many of our friends there and that made it such a special evening.”
Linda Nolan
“This is hands down one of the best parties of the year! The food, drinks and entertainment just all but guarantee a fabulous night!”
Anna
“There are events you go to because you have to and events you go to because you want to and the Best Of Party has been one my friends and I have looked forward to every year. There is meticulous planning with food, drinks and entertainment to make BoP an occasion to remember and keep folks coming back. It's unique each time and it just keeps getting better!”
Erma Lee
“Mama's pizza will be supplying party favors and the end of the night.”
Jordan Scott
“I would have to say you with the VIP ropes (Labia)! Does that count? Also loved the photo booth n late night karaoke!!”
Lisa Lourcey Schmid
I think Lisa is referring to this picture...taken after midnight. I was soo pooped from dancing the night away with Time Machine, I plopped down onto one of the white leather benches, and then my girlfriends decided to surround me in VIP ropes. And I affectionately became known as the vajazzled labia! I joked that this was going to be my Halloween costume!
One of the best things about this event is you can dress the part! Since last year was Rat Pack themed, I couldn't help but run out and grab a wig. And of course since we were raising money and supporting the American Heart Association, I pretended to puff away on a fake cigarette in their honor!
This years charity of choice is Score A Goal in the Classroom, honoring their Executive Director Ernie Horn.
So come out and enjoy the BEST OF everything, including the VIP seats. These pictures were taken in the really cushy privae areas around the dance floor. When you purchase a VIP section, you will feel like you're in Vegas at a club with your very own bottle service. Go big or go home, right? Notice Tommy P. making sure Jason doesn't have any earwax in this picture?
For more information on being a VIP, call 817.560.6111. Space is extremely limited and it sells out fast every year...I hear there are a couple of spots left.
