Best Closing Dinner/ Event & Deal Toys

Closing dinners and deal toys are a favorite topic of bankers—nevermind that you gave up years of your life in the process of getting a transaction closed, you are going to Vegas and get a trophy that spins.

What are the most outrageous, best stories, or just coolest closing events or deal toys you all have heard of. A few of my favorites:

  • PE associate getting incredibly intoxicated at a closing event and booty calling an IB MD
  • A closing event that involved an African safari 
  • A deal toy that was a mini record player
