You're Invited to a slam-style, pun-making competition and comedy show!
What is a Pun-Slam? Allow us to walk you through this event"¦
Step 1: Arrive - A fantastic decision; you're already winning!
Step 2: Decide if you intend to compete, would like to judge, or just sit back and enjoy the show.
Step 3: If you decide to compete, you are now an Intender, intending to win, and will be given a prompt with up to an hour (depending on your arrival time "“ Doors open at 6pm, Show is at 7pm) to come up with your two-minute schtick for round two.
For example, if your prompt is "cheese" your schtick could go something along the lines of, "Wow, everyone here is really lookin' Sharp; I hope ya'll don't get too Shredded! You little Muensters spending lots of Cheddar tonight? Tipping your bar staff, I hope!"
You will also receive free entry, a drink ticket, and the chance to win a gift card to the venue and a T-shirt!
If you decide to be a judge, you will be handed a dry-erase board and marker (for the evening).
