Old-Timers Roast??? (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
A roast is an event in which an individual is subjected to a public presentation of comedic insults, praise, outlandish true and untrue stories, and heartwarming tributes, the implication being that the roastee is able to take the jokes in good humor and not as serious criticism or insult, and therefore, show their good nature. It is seen by some as a great honor to be "roasted", as the individual is surrounded by friends, fans, and well-wishers, who can receive some of the same treatment as well during the course of the evening.
The party & presentation itself are both referred to as a roast.
