We got clout, baby. The Kansas City Irish Fest name opens doors, breaks down barriers and influences people. It's a formidable weapon to be wielded judiciously. Not that I'd know personally. I can barely convince the rest of the board to let me in to Irish Fest for free every year, and I work here. But for Irish Fest raffle committee co-chair Maureen Deeds and son Zack, the KCIF moniker works.
Witness their recent trip to the Jameson distillery in Ireland, where they were given free admission and a free tour after they dropped the KCIF bomb. Just like that.
That settles it. I am NOT buying a ticket to Irish Fest this year!
Okay, well at least I'm not paying full price.

Now let's look at this with a little clearer eye. Maureen is a hell of a lot better looking than you, Danny Boy. And that in its self speaks volumes. They gotta charge you to get in. It is the principle of the the thing. That is how they keep the panhandlers out.
Good point. I'll at least buy a weekend pass and save myself some money...'cause they charge me for beer, too.
Good looking mother and handsome son, but she was the smooth talker. We didn't realize she had so much "juice". Go KCIF.
