Beef and Beer

I like the whole idea of a beef and beer. It's a time for eveyone to have fun and drink. I went to a beef and beer saturday night at St. Dominic's on Frankford Ave. The cause was for a 14 year old kid who died from a brain tumor. The proceeds went towards the parents medical bills. The cost of the beef and beer was $20 and it covered all the food you can eat and all the beer/soda you can drink. It's a lot better than going to a bar and spending $50 for a few drinks, and the money doesn't even go towards a good cause. Beef and beers usually have good raffle prizes too. I paid $20 for 25 tickets. Prizes included autographed an autographed football and puck, spa packages, weekend pocono resort, basket of cheer and many other great prizes. My dad won the autographed football. Bon Jovi and Ron Jaworski (former Eagles quarterback and part owner of the Philadelphia Soul) both signed an AFL ball. The 50/50 ticket was a $420 pot. It was a good time. There was a DJ, dance floor, beer and tons of food.
