WHAT: Our annual Best Of Pants On Fire! shows.

WHEN: Friday, November 27th 6:00 early all-ages show / 9:00 21 & over late show

WHERE: White Eagle Hotel & Saloon

Treat yourself to a night off after Turkey Day as we host Portland’s wildest and most interactive entertainment event with our annual Best of Pants On Fire! Party at the historic White Eagle Hotel & Saloon.

Pants On Fire! features some of the Pacific Northwest’s premier storytellers, comedians, artists, writers, celebrities & musicians telling some of the most outrageous, hard-to-believe, 100% true stories you've ever heard. The problem is, one of our storytellers will be lying to your face, telling a complete whopper that never happened.

Think you can figure out which ones are telling the truth, and which one's pants are on fire? If you can, you might win a bunch of cool stuff, including an overnight stay at the Edgefield Winery & Hotel.

Or try to win the Bag O’ Somewhat Valuable Prizes with our Two Truths & A Lie Audience Cage Match!

Best of all, our annual Thanksgiving Weekend Pants On Fire! All-Star Party features 7 Deadly Sins’ best storytellers of the year, as chosen by our fans.

We’ll have two shows: our all-ages early Family/Friendly Show at 6:00pm, and our very much NSFW 21 & over Filthy/Freaky Show at 9:00pm.

The Best Of Pants On Fire!: Family Friendly

Pants On Fire: Family/Friendly is an all-ages show featuring eight of the most amazing, hard-to-believe stories you’ll ever hear — one of them, of course, being entirely made up. Please note that although the show is all-ages, some stories will likely be more PG-13 than G.

The Best Of Pants On Fire: Filthy/Freaky

Pants On Fire: Filthy/Freaky will be a 21-and-over show, and will feature eight incredibly sinful, possibly risqué, decidedly not safe-for-work stories.

A Quick Note About Changes With Pants On Fire Tickets!

If you’ve been to the show before, you know some of our fans arrive super early — leaving others disappointed with the lack of stage-area seating when they arrive. Because of this starting with our March show, at the request of McMenamins White Eagle, we will be changing up the way Pants On Fire tickets will be sold.

There will now be three tiers of tickets you can purchase:

‘TABLE’ SEATING — These tickets will be a little more expensive than our old GA tickets ($30 plus fees). However, if you buy them you will be guaranteed a two-top or three-top table. (As you might expect, the two-top ticket gets you admission for two people, and the three-top ticket gets you admission for three people.)

‘SEATED’ SEATING — These tickets will be the same price as our old GA tickets ($20 plus fees). They will guarantee you either a seat at that large family style table, the bar, or in the white seats with no tables.

‘STANDING’ SEATING — These oxymoronically named tickets will be half the price of our old GA tickets ($10 plus fees). These tickets will be for those who wish to stand in the stage area, as well as for those are cool sitting in the back-section tables near the entrance of the bar.

None of this is etched in stone, so please: let us know how you like/don’t like the new system! We can always tweak it or go back to the Olde Ways if need be.

The Absolute Worst Holiday Show

Wednesday, December 16th

The Absolute Worst is an interactive, open-mic comedy/storytelling show hosted by Meg Ferrill and Travis Abels, where audience members face off against three curated comedians and storytellers to find out who can lay claim to having gone through the worst experience ever based on that night’s theme, with both absolutely fabulous and absolutely terrible prizes at stake.

And for our December show, we’re looking for the best stories about the Worst Holiday Ever.

Maybe your worst holiday was that Thanksgiving dinner where the family dog ate the turkey before it got to the table. Or maybe it was the year everyone but you forgot your birthday. Or maybe it was that Fourth Of July all-family camping trip where that one uncle nobody likes (you know the one) had too much Pabst and would not stop talking about how “the feminazis” had ruined everything. Or that Valentines Day morning when you were twelve and your parents decided you were old enough to know they were swingers and there were going to be a bunch of “special friends” dropping by that night.

Don’t want to tell a story? No problem! You can still win a prize by winning our It Could Be Worse Game, or giving the best answer to our Absolute Worst Question Of The Night, or being crowned the Absolute Best Audience Member, or some other prize that we’ll probably just make up as we go.

Also, we may ask everyone to howl at the moon. Or we may not. (We’ll see.)
