<blockquote>'''HOMESTAR RUNNER LIVE!'''<br />
Woot. Woot. Woot. Here’s a weekend that’s going to be soooo goood that you’d have to be a moron to miss it. Seriously. We’re bringing Matt and Mike Chapman, the Brothers Chap themselves, live to the Alamo to present a heaping helping of Strongbad, Trogdor, Teen Girl Squad, Homestar, Marziban, and basically all of your favorite H*R characters in a smorgasbord of cartoons and extras you can’t see anywhere else. These two titans of online entertainment have even promised us that they’ll be bringing the Homestar Runner puppet and shooting an original video just for use in these shows. With the massive popularity of their website, we can’t imagine that these shows won’t sell out in advance, so be sure to reserve your seats today!</blockquote>
