Pun Intended Punslam is a slam-style pun-making competition.
What is a Pun-Slam? Allow us to walk you through this event…
Step 1: Arrive - A fantastic decision; you’re already winning!
Step 2: Decide if you intend to compete, would like to judge, or just sit back and enjoy the show.
Step 3: If you decide to compete, you are now an Intender, intending to win, come up with up to 2 mins of punny material related to the topic of your choice!
For example, if your prompt is “cheese” your shtick could go something along the lines of, “Wow, everyone here is really lookin’ Sharp; I hope ya’ll don’t get too Shredded! You little Muensters spending lots of Cheddar tonight? Tipping your bar staff, I hope!”
You will also receive free entry, a drink ticket, and the chance to win a prize!!
If you decide to be a judge, you will be handed a dry-erase board and marker (for the evening).
- 3 rounds
- (up to) 8 Intenders
- 5 judges
- 1 ChampiPun!
In between rounds,
local comedians will perform punny sets!!!!
How The Competition Works:
Round 1 - In pairs of two, Intenders approach the stage and are given a prompt from the audience to collaboratively pun about (no one goes on stage alone for the first round and we are making friends here)!
Round 2 - The Intenders come up one by one to share their puns with the topic of their choice decided on before the fun began!
Round 3 - The top 4 punners pun-off head to head until we have a ChampiPun who wins a prize, bragging rights, and big cheers!
Ready for a terrific night of fun and laughter?

Are you a chronic literary offender?
Recovering from a wordsmithing bender?
Get off your buns
& Sharpen your puns
‘Cause here comes the fabulous Forest Ember
The task before you is clear
8 of you must volunteer
For 3 rounds of fudges
‘Front 5 esteemed judges
While the rest of us laugh, drink & cheer!
1st round, is collaborative by pluck
Since the prompt, as mentioned, is potluck
Just moments to think
It will go by in a blink
And leave all with jaws dropped and awestruck
2nd, take time to think in new ways
Atop a pre-written phrase
Some will advance
To take a big chance
With the audience's clever repartee's
Thirdly the final exam
Goes mono a mono to deprogram
The pun once so maligned
Will tonight be enshrined
So vote for your most favorite slam(mer)
Against the tallest of odds
We’ve found the punniest bipods
Please give a donation
& help the elevation
Of our champion’s monetary applause!
