11/6: Clark Howard to get roasted
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Team Georgia, the highway safety nonprofit group, has roasted WSB-AM’s Capt. Herb Emory in 2004 and Royal Marshall last year in the name of raising funds. This year on November 9 at the Westin Buckhead, they’ve gone after a big, big fish: Clark Howard. Clark was actually roasted lightly last year at his 50th birthday for another charity by the likes of Monica Pearson (formerly Kaufman) and Neal Boortz. Those two will be at it again, along with Capt. Herb. WSB’s Mark Arum, consistently the funniest roaster in the past, will likely pop by again with zingers galore. Naturally, roasting Clark is easier than finding fast-food wrappers in his Prius.
The evening event is $99 a pop (two for $179), which in Clark’s world is awfully expensive. But hey — it’s for charity. More info at Team Georgia’s Web site
