Weirdness is a way of life. You wanna get nuts? Let’s get nuts!
I want to see the chickens and get weird
You had me at Chicken Beauty Contest!
Portland’s weird has made me feel right at home and I really want to go to this. I’d say I’d be going for the costume contest but deep down I know I’m there for the chickens.
As one of the proudly weird people who has long helped Portland earn its reputation for weirdness in my off time (ahhh… Cacophony Society you were so weird and fun) and my on time (ahhh… being the editor of Exotic Magazine for 3 years and then hosting some truly amazing “sex parties” when venues were affordable), I would love to attend this and bring the latest contestant on I Am Darklady’s Husband. 🙂
I shall prevail.
What a blast!
I’d like take my teen to this event!
We’re the weirdest! ^_^
You had me at chicken beauty contest!
My 6 year old would LOVE THIS! something to do with just dad after becoming a new big brother 😊
Looks like a blast!
My boyfriend is coming to town that day and this sounds like the most amazing and perfect date for us!!
If you choose me as the winner, I will use witchcraft to grant your family eternal happiness and financial success. What more could you want?
Kisses

Sounds weird. Very Portland.
A Chicken Beauty Contest, questionable interpretive dancing, costumes, live music AND unlimited rides? This sounds like the wonderfully bizarre kind of day I need in my life! I’d love to come celebrate everything strange, creative, and unapologetically weird and obviously cheer way too enthusiastically for some fabulous chickens.
Sounds fun!

Escape from normalcy!
Loosen my tie and retro-fit my Monte Python for a little while? I’d silly-walk over to see this…
