Typically AM 1280 has thrown a soiree to commemorate the third and final debate of a Presidential race. As such, the gatherings have been legendary in Northern Alliance Radio Network lore. My friend and colleague Mitch Berg recalls the 2004 get-together, back when the NARN was a mere seven months old.
Back then, the station used some trade with the Marriott downtown to get one of their banquet rooms, and advertised it as a debate party with the NARN. The fun part? We started with 100 seats in one room. They had to open up two more rooms and set up a second jumbotron and second porta-bar; we drew a total of 700 that night.We don't look at it as a bad thing if we're faced with such a challenge this time around.
Mitch & I will be MCs of this event. We hope you can join us!
