VIP Tickets to High Heel Race

Don’t forget!  As if you could.  The annual High Heel Race on 17th St., organized by JR’s Bar and Grill, is tomorrow evening.  The race begins around 9:00 pm (the start is at R St., the finish is at Church St.) but people begin showing up for a good spot around 6.  Trust me, if you get there at 9, you will not be able to see a thing.  

Unless . . . you purchase a VIP spot from Historic Dupont Circle Main Streets, the beneficiary of this year’s race proceeds.  Tickets are $40, and the price includes a guaranteed (standing) spot in a reserved area at the finish line and a bar “fast pass” that rockets you to the head of the line at a few 17th St. bars.  $40 to get a great view and avoid standing on the street for three hours is probably worth it, folks.  Word is there are a few VIP passes left, but the deadline is midnight tonight.  So act fast!   Faster than a queen in heels.
