On Cooper's radio show today he announced that there was a private reception at the Beverly Hills Tennis Club on Saturday (the day before the event) that cost $125 -- he urged people to go. Well I called to see what was up (as if the private reception at a private club wasn't bad enough) and found out that prices varied from $500 to $125. The person taking reservations could not explain what $500 bought you as opposed to $125. Access to one or more speakers listed below of your choice????
