Hey Strong Bad, Do you ever do TV commercials for Monster Truck Shows? I think you would be great for the voiceovers. Your devoted fans, Stan and Loretta
STRONG BAD: Aww...that's very sweet. {typing} Look Dan and Linda, Strong Bad doesn't sell out to anybody, man. No matter how monstrous their truck show may or may not be. Though I have done the occasional promo for the events we hold in Strong Badia. In fact, I think there's one coming up this...
{Cut to a monster-truck show promo-style segment. The words Strong Bad says appear on the screen}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} SUNDAY SUNDAY SOMEDAY!
{Two tires cross the screen diagonally, with Strong Bad providing the "vroom" noises for them}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover}IT'S AWEXOME CROSS 98!
{Awexome Cross logo appears. Another tire appears and screeches away to cut to the Strong Badia national flag}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} LIVE IN STRONGBADIA!
{Cut to The Cheat wearing a jumpsuit and waving. What Strong Bad describes shows up on screen as he describes it.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} THRILL! AS THE CHEAT ATTEMPTS TO JUMP THE TIRE OVER THE KOT EATING A CARDBOARD BOX COVERED IN SYRUP!
THE KING OF TOWN: This is some good cake!
{Cut to Strong Mad holding Marzipan's guitar over Homestar, who is wearing a helmet and knee pads.}
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} CHILL! AS STRONG MAD SMASHES MARZIPAN'S GUITAR OVER HOMESTAR'S HEAD!
HOMESTAR RUNNER: Let's do this like Brutus.
STRONG BAD: {voiceover} RECOIL IN HORROR!
{Cut to the Poopsmith tossing out multicolored smoke bombs}
STRONG BAD: AS THE POOPSMITH LIGHTS SOME SMOKE BOMBS! AND THEN? YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO BE THERE TO FIND OUT!
{The Poopsmith winks at the camera.}
STRONG BAD: ADULT ADMISSION IS STILL JUST FIVE DOLLARS! KIDS AND OLD PEOPLE {The Halloween Kids and the KOT appear on screen respectively crossed out} NOT ALLOWED WITHOUT A BUCKET OF FRIED CHICKEN FOR MEEEEE! {A bucket of KnF'nC chicken appears onscreen.} STICK AROUND AFTER THE SHOW FOR A FREE PERFORMANCE BY LIMOZEEN!
{Cut to a photo of Limozeen}
LIMOZEEN: {singing} I've got the heart of a lion and the wings of a bat, because it's midnite!
{Cut back to the Compy 386 and Strong Bad}
STRONG BAD: {singing} Heart of a lion, wings of some stuff, because it's something! {stops singing} Oh-ho man, I love that song! {typing} I can't wait for this sunday sunday someday.
{The Paper comes down}
Easter Eggs
- At the end you can click on the first "Sunday" to bring up a flyer advertisement for the show.
SUNDAY AWEXOME CROSS 98 Live in Strongbadia Thrills! Chills! Syrup! Also, too: A live performance by LIMOZEEN
- Click on the second "Sunday" to play Awexome Cross.
- Click on the "Someday" to see an autographed Limozeen picture.
Fun Facts
- A loud voice booming "Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!" is the classic style of advertising used for monster truck rallies.
- The jumpsuit The Cheat is wearing is the same as the jumpsuit worn by the famous daredevil Evel Knievel during his famous motorcycle jumps.
Other things of interest
- "Toons! Games! I'm gonna check my eeeemail...." is a reference to all the Main Pages.
- The bottles of maple syrup around the cardboard box are designed similarly to those of Mrs. Butterworth's, a famous syrup brand.
- The e-mail is signed 'Stan and Loretta', possibly a Monty Python reference (on the part of the sender). In the movie Life of Brian, Eric Idle plays a man named Stan who wishes to be a woman, insisting that his friends call him Loretta.
- The Limozeen song "Because It's Midnite" would eventually appear on the Strong Bad Sings CD.
- The line "Let's do this like Brutus" is a reference to the Public Enemy song "Bring the Noise."
- The chicken bucket that says "KnF'nC" may be a reference to Guns 'n Roses' "Use Your Illusion" CD, in which a page in the liner notes says, "GnF'nR",and kfc.
Glitches
- Originally if you held the space bar on Awexome Cross, you literally floated in the air. It didn't help dodge obstacles, though.
