| Pie Town says, "Bye, Town," as The Lake at Dawn Dawns New Era June 7, 2024 |
| Beloved indie darlings Pie Town, who three weeks ago ended Slop's marathon 9-win run, had their own run ended by scrappy up-and-comers The Lake at Dawn. Both teams introduced themselves with synchronized statements, which were described as, "like a drunken night at a cabin," by one onlooker and, "like drowning," by another. This madcap energy carried over to both sets, prompting many a delighted giggle and guffaw from the amazed crown. But in the end, The Lake at Dawn prevailed and will return next. Is the beginning of a new multi-show run? Or will Zebra nip this budding dynasty before it blooms? There's only one way to find out! Tickets are on sale now! |

| New Champs Pie Town End Slop Streak May 24, 2024 |
| After nine wins and 225 season total votes, SLOP's seemingly unstoppable run was halted by challengers PIE TOWN. Before a sold out crowd of rowdy onlookers, SLOP held their own with a mighty set, but it was hungry upstarts PIE TOWN who won the day with blistering mix of wit and ribald. What further comedic stylings does PIE TOWN hold for us? Come back next week--same time, same place--to find out! And fret not, SLOP-heads: with 9 wins, SLOP is guaranteed a spot in the championship! Remember fans, this is CAGE MATCH--anything can happen! |

| Slop Snags Success as Regular Run Resumes May 11, 2024 |
| After last week's sold out exhibition match, Cage Match resumed its regular season with yet another sold out show! Returning champs SLOP faced off against scrappy challengers BIRDIE & DUSTY, while another match brewed in the audience between Knicks fans and Celtics fans. Ultimately SLOP defended their title and the audience put aside their basketball-related antagonism to enjoy the show. Also at half-time, a dude in a trench coat told a dude in a bathroom that he slept with everyone's parents. Truly anything can happen at Cage Match! |

| And We're Back! May 6, 2024 |
| Fresh out of a time portal from the year 2121, hosts Fun Boy Randy and Chuck Cuckley have ushered in a new explosive age of Cage Match at UCB's new theater on East 14th Street. Inaugurating the new era, superstar teams THE STEPFATHERS and WHAT I DID FOR LOVE went head to head in the Arena with a jaw-dropping exhibition match and brought not only a supernova of comedy but also what may be the finest pre-fight statements the world has ever seen. When the dust settled, THE STEPFATHERS took the exhibition champion title, but everyone was a winner--especially the sold-out crowd in attendance. Join us next week when our regular season resumes, every Thursday at 10pm. We'll see you in the ring. |
