The Movie Premiere Tour Recap, so far, and free stuff

There are 31 total stops on the I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell Premiere Tour, and we have successfully completed 16 of them. We're over the halfway hump, but by no means are we coasting to the finish. We still have the LA premiere, which is going to be big, and all the midwest stops, which should be super fun. Anyway, we have some updates and announcements for the next two weeks:

-Extra tickets: I keep getting emails about tickets for sold out shows, and I keep telling people the same thing:

"At every show we held back a few tickets for press, and sometimes some of those go unused. Also, at every premiere there are a few no-shows, people who buy tickets but don't make it. Because of this, if you don't have tickets but want to come to the premiere, then get to the theater at like 530 or 6, put your name on the wait list, and most of the time you will get in. In fact, less than half the premieres so far have been standing room only. Most end up with at least two or three seats unused, so stop by and chances are you'll get in."

-Opening Weekend in Chicago: The movie opens on September 25th, and that day, me, Nils and a few other people will be in Chicago. The final premiere is September 24th in San Francisco, we are taking the red eye out that night and I am doing some morning TV and radio press in Chicago that morning, then we are going to a couple showings during the day, and that Friday night we will be hosting a party at a bar. Should be cool, details forthcoming.

-Where the movie is opening: The list of cities we are opening in and the links to buy tickets for opening weekend are coming soon. I will post as soon as possible.

-Merchandise: I never really officially announced this, but since people keep asking, I will talk about it: We are selling the merch we give away at the screenings on the website. We have some pretty cool shirts and what not, but my favorite is the beer pong kit. It's a pitcher, 25 black cups, and 2 ping pong balls, all with I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell on them. People are loving them.

-Free Beer Pong Kits: Speaking of beer pong kits, since people are loving these so much, we've decided to give 1000 of them away as a promotional tool. To get one, it's very simple: Take a picture of you and your friends with a copy of my book in front of whatever place it is you plan to use the beer pong kit; your fraternity, your sorority, your Army barracks, your backyard, your favorite bar, basically anywhere you can play beer pong. Then post that picture on someone's Facebook account, and add it to the I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell Facebook Fanpage. Once you do that, you will get messaged by my assistant, Ian Claudius, asking for your address. Give it to him, and the beer pong kit will arrive in 1-3 weeks. Pretty simple, but we only have 1000 to give away. Once they are gone, that's it.

-Recap of the tour: Here is a recap of every write-up of mine and video from each of the 16 first stops. I just went through and looked at all of this again, and I gotta say: There is some really funny shit in here.
