Music appearance
MIAMI, April 12, 2006 – Think 5 Entertainment President, Ken Tayloe and executive producer, Debra Caprio presented Bobbi Meyers, executive director of the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation's Miami/Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. affiliate, a check in the amount of $10,000 following the appearance of Margarita Wrestling at the Ultra Music Fest at the Miami Airport Marriott hotel following the festival.
Margarita Wrestling, a non-politically correct, "Improvisational Sports Theater" wowed a crowd of more than 50,000 at this year's Ultra Music Fest while on-lookers cheered the bikini clad women executing take-down moves in the Miami sun in a "believe it or not" bowl filled with margarita mix. At the end of the event, consisting of sixteen sizzling rounds and four teams made up of the Hollywood Stars, Las Vegas Diva's, Denver Elements and New York Drivers, a winner was announced.
Margarita Wrestling makes a difference in the lives of women by donating 15% of gross proceeds to breast cancer research and women's causes. Bobbi Meyers said, "So many new start up companies would save the profits for themselves. I am really impressed that Think 5 Entertainment chooses to give so generously to women's causes. It shows a genuine selfless attitude that you don't see much of these days and I am thrilled they selected our foundation to make a donation."
