Hey Folks, Harry here... If you're reading this you are either A) Bored or B) Captivated by this once a year opportunity for outside the box marketing of your geek-centric product. I suppose you could also be wondering - what the hell is this?

Well, the OCTOBUTT-NUMB-A-THON is the 8th Annual BUTT-NUMB-A-THON.

What's that?

The BUTT-NUMB-A-THON started out life as my semi-private / semi-public birthday party, but over the years has transformed into an amazingly exclusive, secretive and magical event known as GEEK CHRISTMAS.

Why Geek Christmas?

Well, it's a 24 hour film festival where each and every attendee has no idea what they're about to see, so each film that plays could be a fantastic premiere, a great classic work of cinema, an exploitive mind-warping bit of traumatic torture devised by some evil forgotten filmmaker. In the past we've had attendees like Vin Diesel, Mel Gibson, Eli Roth and Peter Jackson - all of whom were also given the infamous GEEK BAG.

What is the GEEK BAG?

Well - every attendee gets a GEEK BAG - which is an insane assortment of bizarre awesome cool items. Like last year, Everybody received the ATARI FLASHBACK, along with various X-BOX games including THE MATRIX: PATH OF NEO. Each year there's weird things like odd keychains, USB port plugins, posters for a variety of future films, past films - autographed, non-autographed. Signed 8x10 stills, Books, DVDs, CDs, Magazines, TOYS. In the past we've had amazing items from GENTLE GIANT, MASTER REPLICAS and SIDESHOW TOYS.

For the 240 or so attendees - this is one of the amazing reasons that BNAT (which is short for BUTT-NUMB-A-THON) is GEEK CHRISTMAS?

So - Do you have something for the GEEK BAG? An Item that you know will make someone go, "COOL!" - Well - Drop me an Email at HK@AINTITCOOL.COM and we'll talk about what you have. You don't want to have your cool item left out of GEEK CHRISTMAS, do you?

Here's the link to a couple of the lists of items folks have received at BNATs past: here, here.

NO TALKBACK ON THIS ONE FOLKS!
