<p>I attended #TwilightYEG last night at Hundred Bar &amp; Kitchen in Edmonton.</p>
<p>The Edmonton Twitter event attracted around 60 people and raised over $3,400 for the <a title="ZoomJer got this event going for RLSF" href="http://twilightyeg.wordpress.com/2009/04/10/see-you-at-twilightyeg/" target="_blank">Royal LePage Shelter Foundation</a>. Add that $3,400 to the #TwilightYEG pre-event at Lux last week that raised more than $400.</p>
<p>#TwilightYEG was organized by realtor <a href="http://www.zoomjer.com" target="_blank">Jerry Aulenbach</a> and Shauna McConechy of <a title="Edmonton marketing company" href="http://www.outinc.ca/" target="_blank">Out Inc.</a> Good job guys!</p>
<p>It was a lot of fun to see everyone dressed up and helping to raise money for charity. I didn&#8217;t bid on the BBQ, which @sirthinks ended up winning, by outbidding everyone at $1,700. One of the chefs at Hundred will BBQ for you and 10 people, if I understand correctly. That would be good!</p>
<p>Deciding to use Edmonton Transit was a good plan. I ordered what I thought was a pint of one of my favourite beers, Hoegaarden, and they brought me a massive glass of beer. Sure it&#8217;s not a schooner from Brewster&#8217;s, but a half-litre of beer is nothing to sneeze at. A couple of those, a pint of Guinness and driving is not an option. That being said, you really ought to try Hoegaarden. Great beer!</p>
<p>It seems like I&#8217;m at practically every Edmonton Twitter event there is! At least, that&#8217;s one someone pointed out at the last one I was at! Haha!</p>
<p>The fun continues tonight at Ceili&#8217;s where the YEGtwits will be looking to burst out of second place and take the trivia championship. We&#8217;ve been second three weeks in a row. It will end tonight!</p>
