It's a Casino Night charity gig.  Haven't you guys ever been to one of these?  
 
 They're quite fun actually.  Granted, the hook in the post title is a bit out dated for this crowd, but if you're going to this for the raffle prizes, you're going for the wrong reasons.

You can get a new Squire Strat for under a hundred bucks, so the guitar really shouldn't be the draw. Rather, do it for charity, or so that Adam Duritz can afford new hair extensions.

Well, I was referring to 30 Grand at a blackjack table, but I guess the charity thing is as good a reason.

Better than when I went to school there.  I entered the year after Len died.  Needless to say those were close games against Frostburg (and I think we lost...)
