The Hornets need to average 14,933 fans throughout the course of the next five games against Orlando, Toronto, Memphis, San Antonio, and Oklahoma City. Those are the cold hard facts. The number isn’t unattainable by any means (the team averaged 16,968 in 08-09), but it’s grown substantially over the last two games. Save Our Hornets can donate one ticket for every 10 dollars that it receives (likely the best number anyone is getting on ticket sales) so it is in prime position to increase ticket sales through your contributions.
But let’s forget about our troubles for now, and instead laugh Hornets style. Tonight at the Shadowbox Theater, the The New Movement comedians will have you entertained all night long. The Megaphone Show is their trademark format, and they are bringing it to New Orleans to benefit the SOH Foundation.
They will turn true stories of local movers-and-shakers into sketch comedy. In this special edition, they will be turning the stories of the people behind Save Our Hornets and Hornets247 into sketch comedy!
They are also pitching into the cause and giving half of the proceeds to the Save Our Hornets foundation. It’s possible (read certain) that there will be a few tickets and other prizes given away. Who knows?
Doors are at 8:30p and the show will begin at 9:00p. $10 tickets.
Location: Shadowbox Theater 2400 St. Claude, New Orleans, LA, 70117
The New Movement is a live comedy theater and training center in Austin, Tx and a soon to be live theater in New Orleans, La. For more information on their improv classes in New Orleans please visit www.newmovementtheater.com. www.twitter.com/TNM_Nola

Bummer for those of you that didn’t make the show. The folks at Shadowbox were hilarious. You should definitely look them up on any other given night and check them out. And for tonight, hopefully we helped put a few more kids in seats.
Some more link to the funny people.
