Some Dumbass Gets Wet

On January 28 at the State Theatre, Iceman Wim Hof will immerse himself in a freezing cold tank of ice water for longer than 1 hour and 50 minutes in an attempt to break a record.

Still not interested? Well let's put it in different terms. Some dude who calls himself the "Iceman" will stay in a tank of ice water for longer than anyone really cares.

But, if you are a person who is fascinated by this, make sure to hit up the event. The "Iceman" will give a lecture after his stunt (of sorts).

Schreyer was a major benefactor of the nonpartisan institute. We will update this post with more information as it becomes available.

HUB Titles: It’s Kind of a Funny Story

I’ve been known to crack some jokes here at Onward State. Most of my stories are as serious as a one-legged orphan kitten getting punched in the face by a Native American being forced off his land. That is some super downer stuff right there. Dig through some of my past stories, though, and you just might let loose a chuckle or two. But would I ever joke about mental illness? Of course not. I’m not that heartless. “It’s Kind of a Funny Story,” however, was just crazy enough to try it. The result just might blow your mind.

Read on after the break to find out about the premise, the performance, and the final verdict.
