September 27, 2012
The Student Activities Committee will present ISU AfterDark Friday, Sept. 28. The event is free and will take place from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m in the Memorial Union.
According to the committee’s website, ISU AfterDark looks to provide students with “great late night activities on Friday nights throughout the year.” ISU AfterDark gives students the chance for “outstanding opportunities to have fun, win great prizes, meet other students and have something to do on the ISU campus.”
This week’s lineup features the Found Footage Festival, a collection of videos found at thrift stores and garage sales around the country, currently on a nationwide tour. Founded by Joe Pickett, Nick Prueher and Glenn Severance, their work has been featured on “The Late Show with David Letterman,” “Mystery Science Theater 3000,” “The Onion” and “The Colbert Report.”
Comedian Steve Byrne, star of the TBS show “Sullivan & Son,” will also be performing as part of ISU AfterDark. According to IMDB.com, Byrne has also appeared on an episode of ABC’s “The Middle” and in the movies “Couples Retreat” and “Four Christmases.”
Both Byrne and the Found Footage Festival are co-sponsored by the Student Union Board.
According to the flyer, students attending will also have the chance to win an iPad. Students must show their ISU ID to claim any prizes won at the event.
Other features of ISU AfterDark this week include bingo, craft stations, musical chairs with drunk goggles, free bowling and billiards, green screen photos, food, and karaoke.
