People on the Block Yellin’ “Dominoes”

Once the competition bug hits, it’s hard to swat it away. But when the game is for charity we beg of you – please play nice. At the ING Miami Celebrity Domino Night, there shouldn’t be any palms slamming onto tables, and no yelling “Beat these bones!” Proceeds benefit Amigos...

Once the competition bug hits, it’s hard to swat it away. But when the game is for charity we beg of you – please play nice. At the ING Miami Celebrity Domino Night, there shouldn’t be any palms slamming onto tables, and no yelling “Beat these bones!” Proceeds benefit Amigos 4 Kids, so when you lose the tournament, remember that there’s no crying in dominoes and that some wide-eyed youth is still benefiting from your participation – whether you blew it or not. This year’s game night and celebration will feature a sneak peek at the Celia Cruz All-Stars, an open bar, and a culinary pavilion featuring goodies from local restaurants and caterers. The dress code is tropical chic and tickets $150 in advance.
