PUNDAMONIUM: The Chicago Pun Slam!

Pundamonium is a slam-style pun contest. THE WINNER GETS $50 in real money. One by one, 10 contestants have two minutes each to make puns based on prompts they have received ahead of time. Each contestant is immediately judged by five members of the audience, who have been selected before the show to be judges. They rank each punner on a scale of 1 to 10, often with hilariously long decimals and other commentary. Then they do it again, only this time contestants get their prompts on stage and only have 30 second to think and another two minutes to make puns. The top four contestants go head to head in a final pun-off. Want to compete? Just show up! It's first come, first served. Doors at 7, pun starts at 8. $8. Tickets go on sale 3/8
