The "other" New York Festival/A contest!

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on September 8th, 2005

There’s another comedy festival in New York. It takes place in November (1 through 6) and has a really annoying website, but gobs of star power. (Denis Leary, Joy Behar, Andrew “Dice” Clay, etc.)

The most interesting thing might be their Andy Kaufman Award. The rules for submission, which we would have loved to have excerpted for this posting (but we couldn’t because the entire site is made outta Flash, so we can’t just control+ C anything!!), can be obtained by clicking on the above link, then clicking on the Andy Kaufman Award graphic. Look for it under Thursday, Nov. 3. Oh… first you must sit through their opening splash animation, then click on the “2005 Lineup” link. Is there such a thing as having a site that’s too fancy?
