Dear pun lovers everywhere,
\nI’m\u00a0beyond excited\u00a0to announce that the Champipunship is back!<\/p>\n
Anyone who knows me knows that I love a pun. And if you know that then you will know that I love this event. The night\u00a0can get heated, it will get tense, there will be laughs, there will be devastating groans and most importantly there will be plenty of opportunities for everyone \u00a0in the audience to get involved and prove once and for all just how good you are at puns.<\/p>\n Speaking of getting involved- if you fancy yourself as a potential Champipun, then make yourself known. Spaces are filling up but if you would like to compete,\u00a0or \u00a0you know someone else who would, then please contact me@garymcnair.co.uk<\/em>\u00a0as I have reserved a couple of spaces for the launch.<\/p>\n So, spread the word around your street, office, uni, family, friends and why not bring someone from the EU to show you love them and you still care.<\/p>\n Tickets are available from the ABC website www.o2abcglasgow.co.uk<\/p>\n THE 3rd ANNUAL CHAMPIONSHIP Dear pun lovers everywhere, I’m\u00a0beyond excited\u00a0to announce that the Champipunship is back!

\nThis evening of wordplay and highly competitive silliness originally started as a fundraiser to take\u00a0Donald Robertson Is Not A Standup Comedian\u00a0<\/em>to the\u00a0Edinburgh Festival Fringe but such was the popularity of the event, I am bringing back as a night in it’s own right. Also,\u00a0I decided \u00a0to call the inaugural night the \u00a0First Annual<\/span>\u00a0Champipunship,<\/em>\u00a0thus subsequently trapping myself lifetime of these wether people wanted them or not! \u00a0<\/em>A decision I will never regret.
\n<\/em>
\nThe evening is simple. There are eight competitors who will be whittled down to two in a series of wordplay challenges including the wonderful picture and music rounds. I’m delighted to confirm that this year the music will, once again, be performed by our ridiculously talented house band\u00a0The Pun Lovin’ Criminals\u00a0<\/em>who have brought you such classic mashups in the past as\u00a0The Randy Newman League, Van Morrissey and James Taylor Swift.<\/em>
