Format
The contest will take place Sunday, April 1st at 2:00pm. To sign up for this contest come to the Mardi
Gras Casino Player’s Club any time during business hours, from now until March 29th.
Contestants will compete in single or group acts with the aim of being both unique and absolutely awful.
When the judges can take no more, the gong will be struck at 60 seconds into the act and the
contestants escorted off the stage. Winners will be determined by a panel of judges when all
contestants have finished being “ gonged”.
Contestants are encouraged to be creative, unique and absolutely awful – they must not only satirize
the act of performance itself, but do so in manner which is interesting enough to earn the most points
from the judges. This includes, but is not limited to, costumes, dances, group configurations, horrifying
vocals, general concept, etc. Contestants are strongly advised that they will be laughed at by the
audience and subject to possible judge commentary. Thick skin, a good sense of humor, and a strong
sense of self parody are all highly recommended for this event.
