postheadericon Palin and Beck to reunite Saturday to mark 9/11 in Alaska

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) will welcome Fox News personality Glenn Beck to her home state to mark the anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

Palin and Beck will reunite in Anchorage on Saturday, two weeks after the "Restoring Honor" rally Beck had hosted on the National Mall, at which Palin spoke.

"We can count on Glenn to make the night interesting and inspiring, and I can think of no better way to commemorate 9/11 than to gather with patriots who will 'never forget,'" Palin wrote on her Facebook page.

There is one key difference, though, between the "Restoring Honor" rally and Beck's event in Anchorage: this one costs attendees. Tickets for the event range from a low of $73.75 per person (including taxes and fees) to a high of $225, for a spot in the arena and participation in a "meet and greet." There was no indication as to whom or what the proceeds will go.

The event will bring together the two conservative heavyweights, whose speeches and heavy draw had led some to even suggest the two might share a presidential ticket to challenge President Obama in two years.

Obama will participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Pentagon on Saturday; Vice President Biden will join in services at Ground Zero.
