That’s why Anthony Kennedy Shriver deserves credit for hosting a surprisingly entertaining event for his Best Buddies charity over the weekend. Last Friday night at Harvard Stadium in Boston, Shriver presided over a barbecue dinner and football game,
Canon Wide Angle EF 35mm f/1.4L USM Autofocus Lens, where big-shot benefactors of his organization were able to take the field and run through plays with Tom Brady and other star athletes. To mere spectators like me,
SONY VAIO VPCF13DGX/B, the game appeared to be an N.F.L. fan’s dream. Men and women,
Dell Vostro 3700, along with a number of young children,
Sony HXR-MC50U, got out there and went toe-to-toe with the pros. It was a clever way to structure a forever memory that inspired donors to dig deep while enabling them to have a genuinely pleasurable time.

Another pleasurable surprise at the party was the sight of Verne Troyer,
Canon Vixia HG20, the actor who played Mini-Me in the Austin Powers films,
Toshiba Portege R700-S1332 PT311U-01202V, perched in the seat of honor at the specially designated celebrity table at dinner. I admit to being surprised that an illustrious Kennedy fund-raiser wouldn’t feature a more prominent film icon. For a clan that has been connected to the likes of Marilyn Monroe and Frank Sinatra,
Canon XF100, honoring someone remembered primarily as a novel supporting character in a goofy comedy seemed like an unusual move. But Verne filled the distinguished position admirably. When I chatted with him,
JVC GZ-HD3, he told me that he’d been friendly with the Shrivers for years. “The Kennedys are basically our royal family here in the U.S.,
Dell XPS 15-L502X,” he said. Trying to pry for a bit of Vanity Fair–quality gossip,
samsung mobile, I pressed him on whether he had any insights into the many high-profile controversies that have plagued the family over the years. He played the honorable diplomat: “Everybody makes mistakes,
acer laptop,” he told me politely.

One of the things I enjoyed seeing most during the festivities was a group of representatives from the Miss Universe pageant eating breadsticks in the stadium’s luxury box,
SONY S13EGX/B, bemoaning the chilly evening air that awaited them on the sidelines,
HP 6450b, where they were obliged to appear at the game’s end. Though each seemed to hail from a different state in New England,
Sony HDR-XR550V, they hadn’t dressed very well for the crisp Northeastern weather. After scanning the minimally attired pageant girls,
Canon XF305, one guest tartly remarked,
Dell Latitude E6420, “Oh, poor Miss Maine.” But his meaning wasn’t clear—was he worried about her standing in a short dress out in the cold,
SONY VAIO VPCF13CGX/B, or just that she was being upstaged by her nearby rival,
Panasonic AG-HMC40, Miss New Hampshire?

So Verne was a total success,
Toshiba Tecra R840-S8440, and Anthony Shriver deserves kudos for pulling off an original fund-raising event. It was certainly better than the stale benefits typically organized by equally lofty scions of the American aristocracy.
