On Sunday, September 15, the Big Apple turned into a golfer’s paradise as Eastside Golf hosted its 2nd Annual Liberty Invitational Pairings Party at the swanky Mercedes-Benz Manhattan. If you thought golf was all about stuffy greens and quiet applause, think again! This soirée, presented by Tres Generaciones® Tequila, was anything but ordinary.
The evening kicked off with a splash—literally! Guests were treated to Tres Generaciones specialty cocktails that could make even the most seasoned golfer do a double-take. Picture this: sipping on the 86 OG (a Tres Pina Paloma that’s as refreshing as a cool breeze on the 18th hole), the 18th & 5th Tequila Twist (a Tres Hibiscus Margarita that’s as vibrant as a hole-in-one), and The Georgia Par Tres (Tres ‘73) that had everyone feeling like a champ.
But wait, there’s more! This event wasn’t just about cocktails and conversation; it also featured a silent auction that had the star-studded crowd bidding like they were at the Masters. Proceeds from this spirited auction will benefit the Morehouse College Golf Team, thanks to the dedication of Eastside Golf founders Earl Cooper and Olajuwon Ajanaku—two alumni who are just as passionate about fostering future golfing talent as they are about breaking down barriers in the sport.
Among the illustrious attendees were actors Anthony Anderson and Terrance J, podcast host Rashad Bylal from Earn Your Leisure, and CFDA award winner Tony Shellman, all of whom brought their A-game to the night. With a vibe that was more celebration than competition, it was clear that this event was all about camaraderie, culture, and cocktails.
Why did Tres Generaciones Tequila choose to sponsor this fabulous gathering? Because they know that success is more than just a trophy—it’s all about the journey. The brand, inspired by three generations of ‘Dons,’ understands that life is full of little victories worth celebrating, and what better way to toast those moments than with a glass of premium tequila in hand?
So cheerrs to Eastside Golf, Tres Generaciones, and a night that blended style, substance, and a whole lot of fun at Mercedes-Benz Manhattan. If last night was any indication, the upcoming Liberty Invitational is set to be a hole-in-one event!
