PUNDEMONIUM: San Diego's ONLY Pun Competition!

All puns are intended!

Calling all lovers of dad jokes: San Diego's ONLY pun competition (as seen on CBS8 Morning Extra) is back on Friday, November 4 at 10:00 p.m. on the Finest City Improv main stage! Watch, laugh, groan, or JOIN word nerds from across the city in a battle to see who's the punniest of them all—and win prizes!

Pundemonium! is a three-part event based on the format used by pun contests in cities nationwide:

- In Part 1, Battle of the PUNdits, participants who have signed up in advance will deliver two-minute pun-filled speeches, and the audience will determine the winner.

- In Part 2, PUNslingers, punsters get two minutes to write down as many puns on a given topic as they can. May the best and most puns win. Sign up on the spot at Pundemonium!

- Part 3, the PUNger Games, is a head-to-head pun-off tournament-style, where participants go back and forth making puns on a given topic until they just can't anymore. Think of it as a rap battle, but with puns. Sign up on the spot at Pundemonium!

The event will be hosted by Sarah Flocken, two-time champion of Beltway Pundits in Washington, D.C., plus 2021 panel judge and 2022 competitor at the O. Henry Pun-Off World Championships in Austin, TX.
