The first family must really dig Miami.
Less than two weeks after First Lady Michelle Obama made a trip to the Magic City to speak at the Freedom Tower, hubby Barack will be holding a fundraiser at the Fontainebleau in Miami Beach.
The Obama event will take place Oct. 26, but you'll have to pony up some serious change -- tickets start at $500 per person and top out at a whopping $100,000.
Michelle Obama was in town last week for the Florida Campus Compact Awards Gala, where she gave props to Miami-Dade College president Eduardo Padron, who apparently took her for a spin on the dance floor.
"I want to thank someone I got to party with on Tuesday," Obama said of Padron. "I think you exaggerate when you said we could win any salsa competition. I might be able to, but I don't know about the president."
No word on whether the President will hone his salsa skills while in South Florida.

It's also unknown whether Obama will take up the D-Wade one-on-one challenge while he's in town. Wade gave some gentle trash-talking to the Prez, saying "I would totally win, hands down." The two met in D.C. in June, but didn't play, and now that Obama will be on Wade's turf, a matchup isn't likely.
The Fontainebleau dinner starts at 5 p.m. For more information, contact Missy Kurek at kurek@dccc.org, 202-485-3455 or Val Chraca at presidential@dscc.org, 202-485-3152.
