The banquet was, even by Wayne standards,
opulent. The
ballroom inside the old and storied hotel was unrivaled in the city. Lobster and steak were served, and the bar was open to all guests. A band played contemporary favorites and classical numbers, and the dance floor was filled with socialites wanting to shake hands with the benefactor of the evening. Upstairs, unused conference rooms offered a slight bit of privacy, and all of the hotel's rooms were rented by Mr. Wayne for the evening, with their doors unlocked for guests needing to "freshen up."
All proceeds from the
very expensive tickets were earmarked for children's charities throughout the city, and representatives from those charities were present to discuss the eventual plans for the money. All in all, like everything else in Gotham that day, it was a wonderful turnout.
