Flip is back on the show for the 3rd time and he brought his wife Maritza to talk about their upcoming wing festival called Best of the West Wing Fest. They explain what gave them the idea, how they went about making it a reality, and what it’s been like running an events company. Flip & Maritza also run other monthly events and have learned a lot when it comes to running an events company. Their company Sophisticated Events COS was created so that they can do amazing events and bring fun and exciting things to Colorado Springs!
