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 a coveted Golden Nugget chicken trophy! "Pundemonium!" is a two-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. Want in? We ask that Battle of the PUNdits let us know you're competing ahead of time by emailing sandiegopundemonium@gmail.com - or email us with questions if you're curious but don't know how it works! - Part 2, 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 in advance at sandiegopundemonium@gmail.com OR on the spot at Pundemonium! San Diego Pundemonium! on Instagram
