The one year where it was discussed about selling tickets to folks not at the party, it was decided not to. You had to be there and buy tickets there in order to participate. It was at a hotel bar and was well attended. A lot of money was raised and everyone was very happy. The event was well attended as you had to buy tickets at the party. Half the point is to meet folks. Why go to the party, and meet everyone, if you can buy tickets and stay at your room or go somewhere else.
