This Week for Happy Hour: Orville Redenbacher was a Sexy Beast


Do you love popcorn?  I do.  Do you love cockporn?  Don’t answer that.  Popcorn jokes are never good.  Know why?  Because they’re always so corny.  Yikes.

Moving on…  On July 16, 1907, Orville Redenbacher entered the world, and rays of corn-yellow sunshine drew down from the heavens over the fields of Indiana.  And an angel appeared before his mother and said, "You will name him Orville."  And so it was.  One hundred and four years later, we respectfully celebrate his birthday and his contribution to snack foods of the modern age. 

Come into Rhino Bar on Friday for Happy Hour, 5-9pm for half-price drinks and food.  And as if that weren’t enough, complimentary popping corn will be provided, courtesy of Rhino and that sexy old man, Orville himself.



At the exact moment that Orville Redenbacher was blowing out the 60th candle on his birthday cake, another genius was born.  Will Ferrell turns 44 on Saturday. 

Stoicism.

 Since Orville didn’t make any feature length films, and since Will Ferrell is among the most dynamic and preeminent comedic actors of the last twenty years (tied for first place with Reginald VelJohnson (Family Matters) and Gilbert Gottfried (Problem Child)), Rhino will be showing Will Ferrell movies on Saturday afternoon.   



We’ll sing Happy Birthday to William, then watch Anchorman, Stepbrothers, maybe Old School.  Take a shot of flavored vodka every time Ferrell’s character throws a hilariously desperate temper tantrum until your urine smells like fruit punch.  Seems somehow appropriate.  Don’t know why, just does.

"We're going streaking, across the quad and into Rhino Bar!"

See you there!

Cheers,
Finnegan
