Berger’s 26th Grand Prix

My longtime friend, Sam Berger, is a man with many talents and interests. Two of his favorite things happen to be Formula One Racing and BBQ food. How do you combine an elite, European sport with staple, Southern Cuisine? See below.

Menu

Each menu was a lanyard or “Pit Pass.” The double meaning played to the car’s pit stop and the BBQ pit. It gave you access to everything.

The After-Party

We obviously had to have a dance party in my parent’s basement. Berger’s favorite night out in Boston is the Grand. I made The Grand into The Berg. Oh, and someone decided that we should wear wigs just because.
