The Hillsborough County Republican Party has cut the prices for its Oct. 26 fundraising dinner with former Donald Trump political strategist Steve Bannon.
"New prices! We want to pack the house!!!" says a posting on the party's web site.
The premier "chairman's table" at the event, where Bannon will be seated, originally advertised at $20,000 for 10 VIP seats, has dropped to $5,000. VIP tickets have gone from $1,000 to $300, general admission from $125 to $50, and $15 student tickets — no meal or alcohol — have been added.
