You didn’t watch the debates alone, you didn’t watch returns on election night alone—don’t watch Barack Obama’s inauguration alone!
Come to the Stranger’s Inaugural Ball—Seattle’s only inaugural ball—Tuesday January 20, 2009, at the Triple Door. Doors open at 8AM, 21+, $7 cover. There will be a brunch buffet—catered by Wild Ginger—which is $18 (which includes tax and gratuity). Delicious food, cash bar, large screen TVs, the end of the Bush era—sounds like a party! For tickets call 206-838-4333 or go here. You can also get tickets through the Triple Door.
Where will you be at the precise moment when George W. Bush stops being president and Barack Hussein Obama starts being president? Come to Seattle’s Seattle’s only inaugural ball and you’ll be in a crowd of insanely happy people with a glass of champagne in your hand! Join us!

There is also an Inaugural Ball at the Nile Shrine Center in Mountlake Terrace. For tickets and more information – go to https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/….
Perhaps when, ex loser president Bush walks to Marine One to be whisked away FOR GOOD. We all can give him a 21 shoe salute, or maybe 21,000 shoe salute
SLOG hasn’t done enough coverage of Obama’s Inaugural tuxedo. Are you forgetting the core audience?!
There is also going to be a fun evening event at Rebar: The Inaugural Ball “Return to Camelot” hosted by Seattle’s own, Ade’. On Jan 20th 8pm ’til closing. Wear something fun and sixties’.
Sounds really fun!
Not the tuxedo, the party.
But my big question is – will he be wearing Sean “Puffy” Combs fragrance or Sean Penn’s?
I hope he wears Antonio Banderas’ cologne.
So if this goes like the Election Night party, we should start lining up to get in around oh, say, 3a.m.?
How about a way to purchase tickets ahead of time?
I am an ass. God, I am an ass who can’t read. Please disregard #7.
Thank you, $7 is totally reasonable compared to the earlier numbers being thrown out.
@7 for the incredibly obvious win.
I was totally gonna go to this, but then last week I got selected to go to this instead.
Pardon me for gloating. If it makes y’all feel any better, I’m sure I’ll be freezing my ass (and fingers and lips) off.
Send us pics, @11! Vid too!
Another shout out to Ade’s event at the Re-Bar.
Yeah, I’d love to but a) I don’t live in Seattle and b) I just found out today that I actually have tickets to the inauguration so I’ll be going to D.C. and hanging out on the mall instead.
