Most people choose business casual except for Koneski who goes Biker Formal.

George, George, George, you do realize that I did wear a sport coat and tie? Granted it was leather, but it was a sport coat! It was rather stylish. I thought just wearing a tie would be enough but nooooooo!!! A tie is like a noose to me and a sport coat/suit like a straight jacket!!

That's why I like the Parker banquet, I can wear a Hawaiian shirt just like Chuck and Mike Franzen. That's as formal as I care to be. Just sayin'.

So that was you in the coat and tie? And we thought you didn’t make it

My check was in the mail as of last week and should be received by now

Get your self a Hawaiian sports coat, a clip on Hawaiian tie, you already have the shirt, and a pair of slacks and your all set. Just sayin!

Looking to Chuck and me for social cues might not be the wisest option. Now John Davis and Tom Wooden can teach you how to dress like a dandy!
