The Yearly Pumpkin Destruct-a-thon Needs YOU!

October 26, 2015 By //  by The Beardsgaards

If you have been around this place for a while, you have likely heard of our parking lot misadventures. Last Halloween we made this quick video with our business neighbors at Fallen Star Tattoo in the back parking lot in the middle of a work day with almost no preparation.

Since then we have met a lot of weird and awesome people, acquired more weaponry, and in the making of many more videos, we have also gotten far better at video editing.

Armed with all of these new resources, we decided it’s it’s time for Part Deux. And you bet your ass we’re going bigger and better for round 2. To make it all it can be, we need YOU!

Fox Valley, bring us your pumpkins. And area businesses, we want to use this to promote you, in that special Beardsgaard way.

It’s all going down November 1st, The Day of the Undeadening. Read on.


Bring Out Yer Dead

Bring Out Yer Dead

We need to amass a horde, nay, an army of undead pumpkins. And we don’t want to buy them, because we’re just going to destroy them. That would be wasteful on all fronts.

Instead, we want your used up, starting to look like Walking Dead extra pumpkins. Or just any gourds you guys want to get rid of. They will be given a Viking-level funeral pyre and you will get to see it in movie form.

Drop pumpkins off at the back door of Fallen Star Tattoo, 115 South Batavia Avenue, Batavia, any time Sunday morning, 11/01/2015 before 11 am.


The More the Merrier in Mayhem

We love to use these videos to bring fellow local businesses together. We can all use the final product as a means of promotion or advertisement or whatever you want to call it, but most of all they’re just so much fun to make. Because for real, why do we have to make businessing so business-y?

If you like the cut of our jib in this regard (you can check out more of what we do on our YouTube channel), are a local (Fox River Valley) business owner (with or without staff), and are available on Sunday, November 1st from noon until 6, we want YOU.

So what are we going to be doing exactly? We don’t want to leak any spoilers to the viewing public, but we’ll spill to anyone interested in participating. Just contact us HERE for details.
