June 30, 2013, Sunday - Chris Kluwe Reading and Discussion: Beautifully Unique Sparkleponies at The Loft

Tme: 6:00pm

Location: The Loft, (Performance Hall) 1011 Washington Avenue South

The Loft is proud to host this special event celebrating Beautifully Unique Sparkleponies: On Myths, Morons, Free Speech, Football, and Assorted Absurdities, Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe's hilarious and uncensored take on society's ills.

Join the herd of Beautifully Unique Sparkleponies, an "uproarious, uncensored take on empathy, personal responsibility, and what it means to be human." From the author: "What is in my book, you ask? (I'm really glad you asked, but the way, because now I get to tell you.) Time travel. Gay marriage. Sportsballing. Futuristic goggles that DO NOTHING. [...] So please, join me in the glorious art of windmill tilting by reading this 'collection of rousing, uncensored personal essays, letters, and stories' (I have no idea why that's in quotes)."

This is a free event that is open to the public; therefore seating will be on a first-come, first-served basis. Chris Kluwe will be available to sign books after the event.

About the Author:

Chris Kluwe grew up in Southern California among a colony of wild chinchillas and didn't learn how to communicate outside of barking and howling until he was fourteen years old. He has played football in the NFL, once wrestled a bear for a pot of gold, and lies occassionally. He is also the eternal disappointment of his mother, who just can't understand why he hasn't cured cancer yet. Do you know why these things are in third person? I have no idea. Please tell me if you figure it out.
