    Muhammad Ali is returning to Dublin on 31st August for a charity night in the Ballsbridge Court Hotel. A table of 10 costs €6500 or €650 each.

    I'm looking for 9 other interested people to come together and book a table.
    If your interested you can PM me.

    best of luck with that....... somehow I think you may have some difficulty here, as much of a legend Ali is this is just a tad over the top even if it is for charity!!!!! besides I cant see it being that entertaining, its not like the man can engage with the audience, you are merely paying to be in the presence of the man are you not?????

    There are not many men or women I would pay to see, but Ali is definitely one of them; the only thing is that at this stage of his life, I don't think
    it's all that appealing. It may be actually a tad too sad and disturbing.
    I would prefer to remember him in his early years. 650 is also a lot of cash
    before one even gets a drink:)

    I'd assume drinks and a meal would be part of the deal..
    too dear for me but i'd love to meet the great man.

    If you can get the money i'd recommend going. I met him during the special olympics and it was a great moment. he;ll be gone soon enough, and you'll be pissed off forever that you didnt meet him when you had the chance.

    In saying that, it's a lot of money, too much in my opinion, but if you could justify it to yourself as 350 dontation for a charity and 300 for dinner & Ali...

    Might have just convinced my selfthere!:D

    I'm told there's a dinner, a speech by his wife Lonnie & an auction of Ali and Grand Slam memorabilia.

    So would you pay to see him or not?

    How many people have you for your table already? I would be interested in 2 seats. Do you think for the price of the tickets, will there be an oppertunity to meet theman himself? Doesn't seem worth it if not!!!!!!

    Would be a great night but the price is too steep, and I d'ont think there will be many takers.

    If I was looking at something like 300-350 I would go for it.
