Saw it on Craigslist, and got the signup information this morning:

There's a trivia part, but also some sort of play while in the line to move up. Thought you all might be interested. All the best!

Holy crap! What a disclaimer!

Anyone know what this is? I hate standing in lines, and there's no real information about prizes or the game itself, so it's not clear why anyone would show up for this.

From reading the legalese, it seems that you show up and stand in line. Some people are chosen to perform some sort of physical or mental task that could involve an apparent high degree of risk of physical or mental injury. A person that does well on the task will be moved ahead in the line, perhaps even to the front; one who does poorly will be moved back, even to the end. There is no guarantee that you will be chosen to compete. At some point the people from the front of the line will compete in a trivia game. They advise bringing everything you might need to stand in line outside all day. No mention is made of how calls of nature will be handled.

I would not advise anyone to travel for this. I have a feeling the line will be short and probably get shorter as the day goes on.

From the legalese that was posted earlier, this show sounds perfect for people who are willing to do anything--and have anything done to them--in order to become a reality star.

They're welcome to it.
