Mimosa, a recap

Decided to go to Mimosa last night, so I paid my $30 and off I went. Dressed as a Ninja.
The brother and a fellow gymnastics teammate were also dressed as Ninjas.

After walking in from the parking garage (I'm not paying Valet when I'm going stag!) and getting many interesting stares, looks, and comments, we finally made it to the ballroom. Of course we ran up the down escalators, cause thats what Ninjas do.
Upon attempting to enter the banquet, we were asked to wait, pending arrival of someone to approve our "disruptive" attire. We pressed the issue a bit and were allowed in.
Tables are set for groups of couples so it makes it a bit interesting when you're alone and I wound up at a nearly empty table in the corner, no worries, its easier to observe prey, I mean, people, from the corner then the center of the room.

Entertainment was a bit on the sparse side, but may have been ok if I'd had a date. But then I heard more then one person commenting that they would have rather spent the $60 to take a date some other place.
Food was ok, but I guess I'm just not uppity enough, too fancy for me.

All in all, a decent evening, but a note of reference for myself: NEVER go solo unless being paid or specifically with a group of friends and y'all are sitting together.
