Will Someone Please Give Rainn Wilson a Place to Speak in Seattle?

Posted by on Tue, Oct 20, 2009 at 4:03 PM

According to a recent Twitter message from Rainn Wilson (AKA Dwight from The Office, AKA UW graduate, AKA founder of Soul Pancake): The UW Alumni Group will not be sponsoring his speaking engagement at the school on November 6th so now he needs "a hall to bring my magic to my alma mater!"

Will some PLEASE give this man a hall!? He's interesting and hilarious and I would like to see him and I highly doubt he'd take me up on an invitation to speak at my house to me and my cat.

UPDATE: Mr. Wilson just Tweeted the good news; he found a venue. He'll be speaking November 6th, 6:30 pm, at Kane Hall.

A talentless shrill on the level of Oates & Garfunkel. I'm surprised Dan didn't offer him the Rebar.
