Is this good enough for AWA-11?

Post by keyboardsamurai » Mon Sep 19, 2005 6:09 pm

I bought a ticket for some reason for the formal ball (even though I'm going single). I was wondering if this attire is appropriate for the ball.

there is a black tie under that jacket...

I was told it was formal suite and tie, but not sure on exacts. Also is the ball worth going to single? The last one I went too (formal dance) I already had girl with me.

Ne input would be great...

btw im 22 if any ladies are interested in meeting up for the dance.. Yes, I can tango.

Think about where this is being held: an anime convention. I don't think the rules are gonna say a black and white prom-style tuxedo or something. Personally, you probably far exceed their expectations. And nice pimpage...nice lookin, well dressed, can dance...single...dude, I think you're gonna have trouble gettin the girls off of you.

You gotta consider your competition, also...a whole bunch of pimply-faced, stuck-up nerds who would rather simulate dancing with a girl on their computer than to dance with one in real life.

:lol:

Actually, had you read the website at least once you'd know that the ball does require dress attire. :P

"The Time Traveler’s Ball is a black tie invited event. Men must be attired in a tuxedo or a dark suit and tie." :P

According to the boards and the site it is a ball first and an anime convention second in relation to this event. There have been a LOT of miscomprehensions regarding this and they said they have had to turn people away for not being dressed appropriatly. Like I said, I'd suggest e-mailing the coordinator of the event first.

I definitely agree he should mail to confirm although I'm pretty sure that falls under the "dressed appropriately" category. I actually read through that section because I had a double take on it. I think it's an interesting after hours event. I don't know of any other Con that has ever offered something like this. I'm curious to see how many people will actually attend.

I'm just strapping c4 to my chest with a name tag that reads: "I Am The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs at Midnight!¡!"

I figure that's formal enough
