Free Mid-Week CrossFit Workout!

I know, I know, I’m always posting about free CrossFit workouts (hello, they happen at least once a month), but this one is special because it’s on a Wednesday at 9:30am.

Boy Toy: Sexy Improv Comedy (+ free beer)

Every Saturday at 7pm at ColdTowne Theater (4803 Airport Blvd, next to I Luv Video), you can BYOB and laugh your ass off at humor more clever than T&A jokes–but just as laugh-out-loud, get-the-giggles funny.
