Smile Philanthropy event name ideas!

Hey guys,
I need help with naming a philanthropy event.. basically our chapter is planning on selling drunk food on the main drag of campus where everyone stumbles home from their nights out.. we're going to do one a month from like 11:30pm-4am on a Friday night and have a particular drunk food each time like nachos, hot dogs, pizza, cupcakes, etc. Obviously, we can't call it a "Drunk Food Sale" so what do ya'll think are some good ideas for names? Our philanthropy is Domestic Violence Awareness so the slogan will be something like "Take a bite out of violence" but we really need a cool name for the event itself.

Thanks!

What will the money directly go towards? When I hear of fundraisers for "awareness" of something, I always check to see who/what is the beneficiary (is it a "foundation" or is does it go to say, buying supplies for a shelter?), and what percentage of proceeds are actually donated.

In this case, the person donating money is getting a service/product in kind, so I'm guessing that some of the money goes towards the supplies/permits/etc.

In this case, I wouldn't try to get too cutesy with a name. Just put "Fundraiser for -----" "----For Sale!" Honestly, if you are catering to drunk people, they're not going to care much about the message.

ETA: Your only other post (from last year) was similar - looking for a name for your event. Can't you brainstorm with your sisters who know your campus culture and what might work?
