International House of Puncakes is New Orleans' first live pun contest, and it's back for Season Two! Presented by Duncan Pace and Paul Oswell, our contestants will fight it out using their punniest puns! There can only be one winner! Probably. Unless it's a draw. Either way, there'll be three rounds of wordplay and a healthy peppering of stand up comedy from the city's funniest. Sound clowning by Alex Luchun! Want to be a contestant? email houseofpuncakes@gmail.com! Or come and cheer on the other contestants at the HiHo Lounge! Cheap drinks, and no cover! Top comedians providing the laughs between rounds!
