BEST IN SHOW coming to Broadway! (NOT!)

I witnessed a hilarious moment last Wednesday.

There is a subway poster for ANNIE that features a photo Sandy, and above it are big bold letters that say BEST IN SHOW! (There is an ANNIE logo in a much smaller size at the bottom right of the poster.)

A group of high school boys on a spring break walked by the sign, and one of them perked up and got real excited. "LOOK! 'BEST IN SHOW!' When did they turn that into a Broadway musical?! We should see this instead of Phantom!!"

Ha! Earlier today Lilla Crawford tweeted a picture of one of those posters.

I personally like the "Who's Your Daddy?" signs with Anthony Warlow...

I love people who do this. It makes me laugh so hard.

I know that this is threadjacking, just a tad. But, this is in the same vein as what the OP said.

I was waiting outside in the rain and snow the other night for the ticket holders line for Matilda to die down. As I was waiting I witnessed a young girl (most likely in her 20's) saying in a thick southern accent as she looked at the marquee while walking through Shubert Alley, "Matilda? is this the movie or did they turn it into a show?"

I'm (pleasantly) surprised that high school boys have heard of Best in Show.

Meanwhile, all of the songs in Waiting for Guffman have already been written.

Hey, I'd rather see a BEST IN SHOW musical over a PHANTOM, too!

Best in Show is one of my favorite movies. I would love to see it as a musical, but only if the dogs get to sing.

What a terrible thing to say about Parker Posey

I think they should get a dog to play the cat in Breakfast at Tiffanys. Just call it a cat and let audience use imagination.
