Friday, Minnesotans and fans from afar came together to celebrate Pure Platinum Larry Oakey. The man who has contributed so much in so many varied ways to our bridge world has now earned an amazing 10,000 masterpoints. Friends and fans partied and competed to honor TGLO.
Long time partners and friends from all over came to celebrate!
During a lunchtime break, everyone enjoyed a fabulous pot-luck and regaled one another with TGLO stories.
Larry's SPECIAL 10,000 point, Platinum Life Master cake!
Thanks to Sharon Anderson and Sue Jackson for organizing, and of course, to Teri & Chip Blu for hosting the party.
No one is the slightest bit surprised that Larry was working alongside Teri and Chip at his own party! Larry may now be a Platinum Life Master - but - some things never, ever change!
More photos of everyone below. And - another post coming, highlighting honorifics for Larry!
