We don’t have to tell you how rare it is for classic Muppet specials to be shown on the big screen. The fact that Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas and the Fraggle Rock episode “The Bells of Fraggle Rock” are playing in theaters as special Fathom Events screenings (on December 10th and December 16th) is monumental. I can’t think of a better holiday gift the Henson Company could have given us.
Speaking of gifts, we have five pairs of tickets to give away to some of you lucky Muppet fans! And no, you won’t have to put a hole in your washtub to win. All we want is to see some ugly holiday sweaters. Draw a Muppet wearing an ugly sweater! Create an ugly sweater with a Muppet pattern! Heck, you can even make a REAL ugly sweater! Get creative – as long as whatever you send us has a sweater and something Muppet-related, you’re officially in the running.
Here’s how to enter!
Email your entry to us, and make sure you include:
- Your first and last name
- The name of your preferred movie theater
- The date and time of the screening you’d like
- And a backup theater (just in case your chosen one is sold out).
All entries must be in no later than Saturday, December 1st.
You can find which theaters near you will be screening the specials on the Fathom Events website.
So start knitting, drawing, Photoshopping, or whatever black magic you need to conjure to create your perfect ugly Muppet holiday sweater!
