The legend that is Will Ferrell is coming to receive an award in UCD next wednesday according to 2fm. Anyone here this ???

Kimbot

Its on Bebo and his name is "Will Ferrell".

I would love to get a ticket for this.

bigslick

I can confirm he will indeed be appearing on Wednesday. Will be entertaining to say the least

LegacyUser

can anyone get a ticket , would it be possible to meet him, i wonder?

bigslick

Have to be UCD student i believe to get ticket. They ask for valid UCD student card or else a L&H society membership card

LegacyUser

are you sure, will there be many at it ??

Stepherunie

That's gonna be packed out, major queues one would say.

I love lamp.

Am I the only one in the world to find Will ferrell completly unfunny?? He's up there with Adam Sandler in my top two unfunny people of all time list

valor

me2gud4u

haha belfield fm training night for all the staff. Thats 70 people who wont be there ! HA!

BAA HUMBUG!

Right oh, Will Ferrell is coming to UCD as an invite by the L&H and is being awarded the James Joyce award. I know this because I am on the committee. It will be held in Astra hall on Wednesday at 6pm. L&H members allowed in free while non-members will have to sign up at the stands (in Student centre and Arts block).

According to the Reichsfuhrer of the L&H (Michael Mc Grath), there will be 1000 plus tickets available. Unfortunately, Mr. Ferrell will have to put up with yours truly for the afternoon (and hopefully on the tear after)!! It is good to be alive!!

You know if he decided he didn't want to bother coming he could always get Chad from the Chilli peppers to stand in for him....

I still reckon they are the same person....

You're not alone there, although Sandler's early stuff was brilliant (Happy Gilmore, Billy Madison, SNL). That being said I probably still might pop in to this depending how I'm fixed for lectures on Wednesday.

Will Ferrell does not say that, its Brick Tamland who says that. Classic film and classic line though.

I'm well aware of that, I just dislike Will Ferrell and said I'd be reasonably in step with the thread.

Crap, that comment has blown wind straight up my ass!! Will re-check tomorrow but I am nearly sure it's O' Reilly hall. Again, I will post tomorrow!

You wont have to queue for hours, its a ticketed event. If you're an L&H member then happy days! Its easier to get a ticket! Just go to the desks! For all non L&H members, it's a case of signing up for the tickets. If you're in either category, the tickets will start being available from Monday.

It will be awesome!

Why is he getting an award from UCD? He's an actor. Oh that's a good enough reason :mad:

Well he's getting it from the L&H, not quite the same thing!

I wonder what James Joyce would think about him getting the award though...

Preset No.3

Any truth in the rumour that we will be in 21 later that night?

bigslick

Hey Ruledbyjames, what L&H member card is this years?

I have a white one with 153rd on it?
that most recent one?

cheers

elmyra

Yep, this is the 153rd session.

I went on the piss with him last night! It was one of the best nights out I have ever had! His family (dad and brother) are dead sound! We all got drunk as sailors for about 5 hours and he unfortunately he didnt come to Abra after !

He's a sharp fella like his dad and bro! I just cant wait for Wednesday now!

remus808

Hmm I really don't get the hullabaloo about this one? It's like the Tommy Tiernan thing, it's not a stand-up gig or anything..

HazeyBazey

Don't forget those zany mannerisms and wild flailing arms. :rolleyes:

I don't get the fascination with the guy myself. He's well overrated.
