Most bars not only had their own individual party night but no BM is going to sit in one bar from 8pm to 2am.
All the bars had an incredible 2 weeks.
Even when it was one team's party night all the bars were crowded.
Stringfellows and Kings bar had a small clash of a private party and a Team party - both were still packed.
The BMs seem to have decided, independently, to mainly patronize the bars that put the effort in to be there.
I remember 2 parties in Pattaya where they had to turn customers away - not seen that in many a year.
The bars put aside their commercial interests for a one day event from which everybody benefits. Win, win, win.
Of course the Water Volley Ball provides a focus.
Those that participate deserve the reward, whether that be in Bangkok or Pattaya or Nakhon Nowhere.
Temptations/Cockatoo donated the profit form their party to the event. 60,000 Baht - included a collection from the bar group's staff.GG&LB
Both bars in Bangkok had to pay their own transportation and accommodation from their own wallet.
Did anyone notice that Check In Bar also raised another 100,000 Baht?
Certainly Check In bar entered into the spirit of the Event - see photos.
Their Cheerleader team were awesome - stole the show, Should encourage more participation next year.
Many LBs have said what a great day out they had - one of the objectives of the event, after contributing to Charity, is to present the LBs in a favourable light.
Normally they get little opportunity to do so but this was their day to shine. Stellar performance from all.
Our LBs work in a bar 8 hours a day, 7 nights a week - the Event gives them a great day and evening off.
All the teams did more than that in the evening - they were glamorous and very chique. More like an Oscar ceremony.
Everyone, who attended, should feel enormously proud of the encouragement that was given to the teams, the amount raised (1.4 Million) and the incredible atmosphere in spite of bad weather. Look at all the 800+ photos - smiles everywhere.
No single bar can contribute 1,000,000 to Charity but collectvely they can.
It was awesome, incredible, colourful, good-humoured and successful.
Of course, personally, I get emotional about it - it is 6 months of f.... hard work.
The result is the reward
Just waiting for a group of GG bars to even try to compete with that result.
LBWVB is the second biggest 1 day Fund Raiser in Pattaya.
Tickets are sold out in advance and, any available, resold in seconds.

I've never been able to get there that early as my work is seasonal and I can still work then.
