Fundraiser Happening TONIGHT!

You already know that Freak Happening is a great, fun time; a parade of weird goofs and silly guffaws unrivaled in Chicago. This Friday, the November edition of Freak Happening takes flight and will, for one night only, also function as a fundraiser for Team Rubicon's Operation: Honest Abe project.

Team Rubicon was founded by retired marines and specializes in deploying emergency response teams to disaster-stricken areas. Operation: Honest Abe is an effort to rebuild the hardest-hit areas of the Chicagoland area by this past weekend's rash of tornadoes/storms.

The fundraiser has been organzied by the amazing Kris Simmons, a Chicago-based comedian and great person. We'll be taking donations, as well as raffling off a saki gift certificate, a bottle of bourbon, restaurant gift certificates, and other exciting prizes!

All this, plus the usual insanity from hosts Goodrich Gevaart and Nick Rouley, plus standup comedy and other weirdness from Candy Lawrence, Caitlin Bergh, Cameron Gillette, and Sonia Denis!
