Frankie Fierce’s Birthday Extravaganza for Charity

Saturday, January 11 may have been when the Saints Super Bowl dreams were dashed thanks to the Seahawks, but it was not a total day of disappointment.  New Orleans hottest promoter and bartender Frankie Wingerter (or as he is better known as Frankie Fierce) threw a blow-out bash at Oz for his 30th Birthday Party.  Local celebrities came out in droves to help him celebrate his big day.

The party was stimulation overload, there was incredible food supplied by local restaurants, a fashion show, drag performances, silent and live auction and even a shot boy running around giving out Fireball Whiskey shots (extremely potent). 

Oh yes, and there was a cake also.  Not even the loss could dampen guests’ spirits as guests danced and drank the night away.  Fierce used this milestone to not only provide an enjoyable evening for friends and family; he also gave back to the community by raising over four thousand dollars for Buzzy’s Boys and Girls with his auctions.  Congratulations Frankie and keep up the good work; you are truly living up to your nickname “Fierce.”
