Update #1: Thank you everyone - let's keep going!
Hi people of the world! Thank you for contributing to the Chris Gethard Show Cross Country Adventure. I'm amazed that we've made our funding and will be able to get out there on the roads of the USA to bring bizarre entertainment to the people of America, as well as the world via the internet.
To everyone who contributed - a very sincere thank you. Without your help, this could not be happening.
To everyone who is thinking about contributing or who maybe was gonna but decided not to once we hit our goal - please think about throwing in! The more resources we have, the more good we can do! We very much appreciate any and everyone who can contribute in any way.
Here's a video we made explaining a little bit about what we're doing and why - hope you enjoy! Sorry Will Hines is in it.

You get to define one of the stops on our cross country adventure. These will be the only stops we pre-determine for the entire trip. You can tell us to go anywhere - "I definitely want you to come to my house." or "Why not go to my friend's house and scare the shit out of him in the middle of the night?" or "My frat is throwing a party and we want you to come party with us so we have some nerds to make fun of." We don't care. We'll make it work. As long as you can give us an address that shows up in our GPS, we'll take you up on it.

The Chris Gethard Show takes place once a month at the UCB Theater in New York, NY. In just over a year of existence, they've staged 13 crazy shows. One took place in Chris's apartment. Another served as a match making service that brought together three couples who are still together. Another featured an event called "The Wheel of Degradation" that will take way too long to explain. Our cast is a group of talented, creative, motivated weirdos who really want to give the audience things they don't expect, and in a way they don't expect.
Besides Chris, who is the ringmaster of the show, the cast includes Shannon O'Neill (the most badass lady in NYC), Don Fanelli (the handsomest man in Hackensack, NJ), and Will Hines (Chris's unfunny 40 year old sidekick). Bethany Hall, our stage manager, and Jon Demuth, our video director, will also make the trek, as will our house band - The Kung Fu Monkeys!
YAY! It was nice to meet you guys!
