Hey — have you heard about this movie by the Coen Brothers, The Big Lebowski? This movie is very popular! There's even a "fest" for the many fans of this movie. It is called the Lebowski Fest, and it is also very popular. Which makes sense, because it is good, clean fun!
People who attend the Lebowski Fest event watch the The Big Lebowski movie together, in a room full of chairs and darkness, and laugh at the many funny and idiosyncratic scenes. Many Fest-goers also go to the Fest's bowling nights, dressed in neat costumes inspired by the movie. They bowl, and drink brown cocktails with dairy products in them, and eat cute little pizzas or nachos. Bloggers also attend sometimes, to take pictures of the cool-looking people and not bowl at all and be lame, pretty much.
This year's Lebowski Fest wrapped up last night, but you should make plans to attend next year's. You can go in your bathrobe, or you can wear a toilet! (Because of that scene in the movie, with The Dude, and the toilet.) Where else can you wear a toilet? Seriously: Abide.
