On the road again

A faux tweet noted that a Double Dare live show is coming to Chicagoland.

Turns out the live show is mounting a multi-city tour in October and November. So far there are 14 dates confirmed, all in the eastern half of the country. By the way, the linked story says that Nick's current Double Dare reboot ranks in the top three TV shows in kids 6-11. So there's probably a sizeable young'un audience built in for the live tour.

Of course, The Price is Right has long been sending a live show hither and yon. (I've never been to hither and yon, but I hear they're nice.) Other attempts to mount live touring versions of game shows have been less successful. They've tried with Family Feud and Let's Make a Deal, without much luck.

As long as Marc Summers is around, the live Double Dare show should sell some tickets. They just have to make sure there's enough green slime on hand.
