Ever dream about going to Vegas for your bachelor party, getting so inebriated that you cannot remember that you stole Mike Tyson’s pet tiger or how a naked Asian man got into your trunk?  Oh and where you might have left one of your best buds, who also happened to be the groom?

That is the premise behind the movie The Hangover.  The movie is jammed packed with the shenanigans of four guys heading to Vegas two days before the wedding.  The group starts out with good intentions for the party, until future brother-in-law Alan (Zach Galifianakis), decides to secretly slip the others (and himself) a little ecstasy into their drinks.  The only problem with his theory, he didn’t buy ecstasy but instead had ‘roofied’ the gang.

As someone who lives in Pittsburgh I have time and time again had my interest, or lack thereof, questioned in terms of local artists, events, foods and beverages. There have been far too many times that a person will say to me “what do you mean you don’t listen Christina Aguilera? You’re from Pittsburgh” or “how can you say that Iron City Beer is terrible? You’re from Pittsburgh.” People seem willing to assume that just because I hail from the same place as something I will ignore how bad that thing is and fall in love with it because it came from near where I do. Unfortunately for Christina, Iron City and now the “comedy” movie Adventureland, that is something I am simply not willing to do.
