Think Its Impossible to Get SNL Tickets? Think Again

September 2, 2009 at 1:29 PM | by cmb | 4 Comments

Getting tickets to Saturday Night Live has notoriously been thought to be like getting into Mob; you can't get in without connections and a willingness to do whatever it takes. But that isn't necessarily the case.

Saturday Night Live gives out tickets for the entire season in August via an online lottery, which you just missed. To enter the lotto (try again next August), just send all of your contact information to snltickets@ncbuni.com. You can not select a specific date and can only send one email per household. There are also a few tickets reserved each show for "people in the know", like Guy Fieri and the cast of Gossip Girl. But, just because it's now September and you have yet to be cast in a CW teen soap, doesn't mean you're out of luck, there are still a few stand-by tickets available for each show.

Is Destination Dissing Like Totally Uncool These Days?

Apparently even long after the presidential election has ended, viewers are still to tuning into Saturday Night Live on NBC. And this time, it's not just grounded teenagers watching. Politicians are also paying attention. And one politician in particular was pretty riled up over a recent skit. No, it wasn't Sarah Palin.

Lt. Governor James "Duke" Aiona of Hawaii recently voiced his displeasure about a skit that poked fun at folks who choose the Aloha State as their vacation destination. In fact, a whole bunch of people working for the Hawaii government are a little cranky over the way in which Hawaii hospitality was portrayed, claiming skits like these are further wounding their already beaten down tourism economy.

Funny Travel: Suspicious Samberg

May 1, 2008 at 8:50 AM | by egw | 0 Comments

This TSA agent at LAX probably saw Andy Samberg's "Iran So Far Away" SNL skit and came to the conclusion he really knows Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Instead of, you know, Fred Armisen looking very much like Ahmadinejad.

Besides SNL, Samberg just wrapped voice work on a kids' movie set to be released in 2008 called "Space Chimps." In the CGI movie, Samberg's character is the grandson of the original chimp astronaut who is tapped by a NASA commander (Patrick Warburton) to join a mission to defeat an evil alien (Jeff Daniels).
