Fox Announces NAPOLEON DYNAMITE Day, 1/5
"Gosh," it seems like everyone thinks they can do an awesome NAPOLEON DYNAMITE impression. Fans can prove it by getting their "sweet bods" down to NAPOLEON DYNAMITE DAY at Hollywood & Highland on Thursday, Jan. 5 for the "NAPOLEON DYNAMITE Sound-A-Like Contest" where the best impression will win $1,000 and the entire cast – including star Jon Heder – will be on hand to judge the mad skills.
Fans should brush up on their favorite lines from the film, whether it's Kip's hilarious taunt "Your Mom Goes to College," or Pedro's campaign slogan "If you vote for me, all of your wildest dreams will come true" or Napoleon's iconic threat "You Do, You Die." The entire cast, including Heder, Efren Ramirez, TINA MAJORINO, Jon Gries, Diedrich Bader and Sandy Martin will be on hand to award cash prizes and bragging rights to the best character impressions, so fans should sign up early by emailing their first name, last name and email address to NAPOLEONDYNAMITEday@gmail.com. Or show up anytime between 12:00-4:00 PM PST to enjoy a trip back to summer in Preston, ID, with free Tater Tots and quesadillas, Deb's Arts & Crafts station, Rex Kwon Do demonstrations, a dance competition and a photo with "Tina," the llama.
