On Friday, August 7th, 2020, I hosted a Richest Penguins Dinner fundraiser for the Imperial Bank. The event was meant to bring back memories and fun times from previous years when the event was held, as well as raise gold for the bank. The bank managed to raise over 1.5 million gold during this event, and I'm happy to say that it was a success.
Here is a recap on the majority of the most monumental moments of the dinner.


The bouncer for the night was the amazing Sled, with Brit as her guard. Drake Hall Courtyard was packed with users trying to enter. Over 50 users were in the room, attempting to be invited in. The entry fee was 50,000 for users and 45,000 for Moderators. Although not everyone paid the fees, roughly 44 people were invited into Drake Hall for the dinner, making it a very packed event.

SENTRY showed up, inviting himself in and announcing that this is his event. I shut down his claims, and he made a toast.









Despite not being informed of one, DRAKE made an announcement stating that I would do a civilized quiz. I had to wing it, but I asked some questions that are important to know when being at a proper restaurant or event.

Afterwards, DRAKE proposed a dance, encouraging people to have fun with their friends.

After dancing and talking for a bit, SENTRY proposed a kiss and took off.

After the dinner, everyone started heading to the spa for the afterparty.

The afterparty calmed down and slowly became smaller until everyone took their leave.


Thank you to everyone who came to the event, even those that didn't pay. You made this event a huge success, and I'm really proud of myself and those who helped to set this up.

Thank you again.

The event was fun, glad to experience it once again! Great report!

It was an excellent time! Do you know how much gold was raised by this event?

*EDIT: I'm dumb. I somehow missed the part where you said the amount. Hopefully this keeps things afloat for a good while!

Over a million I heard!

Even though I missed this event, the imperial bank dinner is one of the best events I've been to. Brings back some good OldCP memories.
