Newspaper Ad for Blazing Saddles Mentions The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Came across a bizarre ad for a midnight showing of Blazing Saddles announcing that "Anyone wearing a Rocky Horror t shirt gets in free!" Fucking free! What the fuck purpose could that even serve? I can only imagine that it was a mistake, since I also found the same offer from the same theater (around the same time period) for a midnight Rocky Horror showing.  (Included below.)

Mistake or not, it makes me want to write a story about a small town in Idaho in the 1970's where a midnight showing of Blazing Saddles is taken over by a theater full of hardcore Rocky Horror fans who charge in just a-whomping and a-whooping and do a shadowcast of Rocky while Blazing Saddles plays on the screen. Screaming and singing the entire script so loud that it drowns out the speakers.  Then doing the last few minutes in a quiet theater, since Rocky is 7 minutes longer. "Lost in time and lost in space. And meaning."

Then maybe, once the crowd is finished (and if the theater owner is cool), the projectionist starts up the real Rocky Horror! It's a motherfuckin' double-feature, fool!

Oh yeah, there's also one poor soul who's never seen either film and leaves confused as fuck.
