RAQUEL QUEEN OF BAIL & U OF MMA

I fully enjoyed the summer season as a sponsor with the University of Mixed Martial Arts. UofMMA had an incredible season at Nokias LA Live Downtown Los Angeles. The venue is just fantastic. You can eat and drink downstairs & enjoy the fights upstairs. The fights had great dj's as well. 

Thank you to U of MMA for sending me these pictures by the photographer Stephanie Drews! She's a fantastic photographer & lady! It was great to meet her. 

The experience was great for me as a business owner, I learned a lot! 

QUEEN OF BAIL SPONSORS THE U of MMA at NOKIA THEATRE

It has been my pleasure being a sponsor of the U of MMA this summer season. It was four fight nights. These events were always exhilarating. As a sponsor, I noticed each night had it's specific benefits for my business. The last fight night RQOB had a booth with a poster signing, Tshirt giveaway & of course my sticker! The crowd at these events are friendly & RQOB is well received. The MC, gave me many shout outs with the crazy event voice.. So exciting to hear throughout the night.

Thank you to the U of MMA for a truly fantastic summer season! I met so many great people, photographers, news casters, the ring girls & fighters. The whole experience will never be forgotten.

The first week of June is here and it started out great.  Saturday night I went to an art opening at the Samuel Freeman Gallery in the arts district of La Cienega. The artists name is Phil Bower. The shows name was "nudes" it was a collection of paintings. I ran into a friend I hadn't seen in ten years! It was D.H. The singer of the Dead Kennedy's! He looked Great! He recently wrote a book called  King of Afro Punk . He's touring with Peligro and he's clean & sober. It showed! I was so happy for him. It was a great night. 

Sunday morning my friends & I went to the world famous Ciros in East LA. If your from Los Angeles, you know about Ciros. It's the best food in East LA. Of course it's a tiny hole in the wall with the best juke box ever. Oldies, to funk to Patsy Cline. A perfect place for a business brainstorm breakfast with great friends!  After a heavy breakfast of authentic Mexican food we really needed to walk, so we went to the Hollywood Farmers Market!! All local farmers organic fruits, vegetables, & baked goods. Homeboy Industries has a booth there & we always support them, this is Los Angeles!!! 

Sunday night I sponsored the MMA  fights at LA LIVE NOKIA! What a night! What a weekend!  I am so grateful for my friends, family, my business & my city!! Now it seems odd, but I'm working on a bond on a Tuesday morning. You would think it would be Friday night. You just never know when you may need bail! Stay ready & don't get caught slippin!!

June 1rst I'm a proud sponsor of the MMA fight night at Nokias LA Live. It's my second fight night with the U of MMA.  I'm used to promoting for RQOB, but today was slightly different. I had a nice big stack of event flyers & posters to place any where I wish. There's always a lot of thought in everything I do & today was no different. I knew I was going to go to a completely different demographic than I'm used to, & I didn't know what to expect. My first stop, PRO BOXING SUPPLIES. Pro Boxing Supplies is on the corner of Laurel Cyn & Moorpark in Studio City. I've driven past it for years. I got a very nice welcome from the staff, they put the event flyers at the front of the shop and took my poster too!  They gave me permission to take pictures and even showed me around. This place has everything for mixed martial arts. I even spotted some pink boxer shorts for women. I really appreciate their kindness & support of the MMA & support of local business. I highly recommend checking out this place. Tell them I sent you! This was the best spot I hit all day!

I'm sure you've heard of an "in store" event... Some of my artist friends & clients do in store events. The artist is there in the store & they promote their album or event, sign autographs & take pictures with fans. Well yesterday I did one with the U of MMA!! It was very exciting! I was the only sponsor of the event invited to participate, & I felt very welcomed. 

Three fighters were were there. Light weight challenger Pious " Voodoo" Enilobobo & top welter weight challenger shohei " Kej Tora" Yamamoto & rising welterweight Ronald Minera were all there at the event. Also the lovely ring girls of U of MMA were there. 

It was great for me to have a moment to introduce myself to the fighters as a proud sponsor because at the fights, they're way to focused to be chit chatting with me. 

The ring girls are always so sweet to me, they're super cool girls in fantastic shape with no attitude & that makes them even more lovely. 

The event was at Best Buys in Atwater/Glendale area on Los Feliz Blvd. Best Buys had the U of MMA Fights on the new curved screen tv which was pretty cool. 

I must thank the U of MMA for inviting me to participate & also thank Best Buys for hosting the event. 

My girlfriends came to support me, which was unbelievable to me. I am so grateful .. Hard work pays off. That's really all I can say!! Thank you!!!

June is a great month for RQOB ! June 1rst starts out with a bang. MMA is making a lot of noise in the sports world. I am a proud sponsor of the University of Mixed Martial Arts. These fighters are on their way to going pro! To see them fight is amazing. The determination, tenacity and commitment it takes to get here is somthing I truly admire.

UofMMA is a favorite of mine because they provide a top of the line format for these amature fighters to showcase their skills. It prepares them for the big time in a big time way. To fight at Nokias La Live Theatre is very exciting. The stage and fighting cage are the real deal. The MC has the voice! The lights & the music.., it's an adrenaline rush for sure. I am so proud to have the opportunity to be a part of this. It's Los Angeles at it's best. Mark the date and meet me there! I'll have giveaways all night, & I hope to meet you!

RQOB is on a mission to take over Los Angeles, & it's not easy. It's a lot of work, but boy is it fun. Yesterday we had casting interviews & sound bites for my latest project. We had RQOB custom cupcakes and cookies... The perfect occasion. The Cherokee building is so beautiful, there were many options for filming. After a full day we all went over to Musso & Frank for some cocktails. 

One of my vendors a company called "Below Poverty Level" had a launch party in Korea Town, so that was our next stop. A gang of my friends from DMS were outside smoking cigarettes, great to see them! 

Well I only had two seconds to stay there I had a bond call at twin towers & luckily I was very close to downtown. Met with my clients & got someone out of jail. That really topped the whole day!

What a great day.. I have so many people to thank, & I'll be sure to do that today.
