Hundreds of attendees of the popular Daddyland circuit party were thrown out of their downtown Dallas hotel after alleged complaints from Vice President Kamala Harris’s sorority sisters.
Both groups somehow managed to get booked into the same hotel at the same time, leading to a confrontation with hotel management, who claimed that the sorority sisters complained about the men’s inappropriate behavior in the hotel’s public areas.

She shouted about how her son “might think he can put on makeup and… high heels and have his penis cut off and take estrogen and grow fake boobs!”
The incident began last Friday, when a number of members of the Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority — in town for their biennial convention, where Harris will give the keynote address on Wednesday — found themselves sharing the Crown Plaza Downtown Dallas hotel with the Daddyland Festival Dallas 2024 event.

Hotel management claimed the circuit party “went to hell” after a Friday night kickoff. By Saturday afternoon, the hotel sent notices to 88 rooms of Daddyland attendees informing them that they had two hours to vacate the premises.
At 4 p.m. on Saturday, Daddyland attendees received this printed message in their rooms: “Take a moment… Daddyland group participant. We are sorry it didn’t work out… the owner of the hotel is requesting you leave immediately. You will get a refund for Saturday, july 6, 2024 and Sunday, july 7, 2024 – please move out by 6 p.m.. All parties & events are canceled Saturday 7/6, Sunday 7/7 & Monday 7/8.”
The hotel’s owner told The Advocate that promotors for the Daddyland event, which the hotel has hosted before, failed in their responsibilities to manage attendees’ behavior in public areas.
“The last time they were perfect. This time, it went to hell,” said the hotel’s owner, Terry Tognazzini.
Tognazzini said the last-minute eviction had nothing to do with homophobia and could have been avoided if the promoter had bought out the entire hotel.
