Orlando Touchdown Club
We are now SIX for SIX so far this fall! What a fabulous night we all had on Mon, Nov. 21 when Andrea Adelson of ESPN stopped by to see us again! This classy lady and friend is always welcome at our club. As an added bonus, we welcomed the JUCO player of the year and heard from former FSU star and NFL Hall of Fame player, Walter Jones. Truly, it was a magical night!
Next on December 20, we'll see our great friend, Charles Davis of CBS. Our season ends on Jan. 16 when Tony Barnhart, "Mr. College Football," will be wth us one week after the National Champions are crowned. With just 2 more dinner meetings scheduled, we're all having a fantastic season together!
The Orlando TD Club is a wonderful "social club" that LOVES college FB! When one considers the members we have, the great speakers we attract and the superb food we always serve, you will quickly see how we are a terrific group of people you will want to be with. Are you looking for some new contacts and friendships? That's the Orlando TD Club!

In our rich history as a club, we have already had Steve Spurrier (twice), Lee Corso, (numerous times in the past) Stan Van Gundy, Lou Holtz and the late, great Bobby Bowden. Considering we had Gus Malzahn in 2021 and just had Arkansas coach, Sam Pittman in May, we will always give you wonderful speakers and great value for your membership!
But there's more! Along with a super good speaker at every dinner meeting, we always give you FIVE terrific personalities in
Mike Bianchi, Marc Daniels, Steve Gunter, Thomas Tart and Dan LaForest. That's a lot of entertainment! Plus you always get a wonderful buffet meal included too.
Mike Bianchi, our popular MC, is not only the top sports columnist for The Orlando Sentinel, he's the host of his own daily radio show on "96.9 The Game." And lucky for us, Mike gives us his own college FB commentary at every meeting.
Marc Daniels, the wonderful radio voice of the UCF Knights and also the popular mid morning host with "96.9 The Game," delivers a fabulous UCF report at every meeting that excites our growing UCF membership.
Steve Gunter, the terrific host and owner of the Tap Room, always provides a great welcome, a story and a funny SEC video before each meeting.
Of course, no dinner meeting can be complete without a terrific history lesson and prayer from Thomas Tart, the former Gator FB star who is also our club historian.
At each meeting Dan LaForest shows us entertaining high school videos and allows us to meet the Orange and Seminole Co. high school players of the week. On Dec. 20 we will meet the players and coach of the year!
Our location for all TD Club dinner meetings is the Historic Dubsdread Ballroom, next door to The Tap Room, just off Par St. and I-4. And yes, not only is it a great venue to host a meeting, The Tap Room is a fabulous place to have lunch and dinner at!
WHO is your favorite college team? Whoever it is, you'll have plenty of company! All Gators, Knights, 'Noles, Irish, Vols, 'Canes, Dawgs, Tigers, Wolverines, 'Heels, Trojans, Lions, VA Cavaliers and heck, even all Buckeyes and 'Bama people are welcome at our club too.
