Über Goober

The Über Goober showing at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin sold out in PRE-BOX OFFICE sales.  It went very well, and I (Steve) want to thank everyone who showed up to see it.  I also apologize to everyone who didn’t get a chance to see it.  The Alamo is already talking about another screening in October, and also possibly one in Houston.  In the meantime, we’ll keep the site up to date on other screenings coming up.

A very special thanks to Steve Jackson for introducing me and the film at the Alamo Drafthouse.  It was an honor to have him there, and you can read his review here: http://www.sjgames.com/ill/archives.html?y=2004&m=July&d=22

Über Goober was shown at the (Downtown) Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas at 7pm.  Tickets were $6.50 ($5.00 if you had your student ID).  Read more at their site (click on Über Goober on July 21st on the calendar).  There was only one showing, so people had to buy tickets early.  Oh, and you could also buy drinks and dinner there while you watch.

Über Goober gear, like the shirt shown below, is now available for purchase through CafePress.com. Please visit and look around, even if you don’t buy anything.
