Tournament of Cheeseburgers
Oh, this, this is what we live for. LAist has teamed up with Smorgasburg to have the first ever Tournament of Cheeseburgers. Starting now until the end of June you can vote on your favorite place to munch down burgers with cheesy goodness upon them, only in SoCal. Then, on July 7th at Smorgasburg they'll crown the winner.
To be a part of it, just submit your favorite cheeseburger place here. If it wins, it and 7 other burger joints will be invited to sell their burgers at Smorgasburg July 7th and the revealed winner will take the crown that day.
Love this from the press release: "This event, in partnership with Smorgasburg LA, will be a fun-filled, family-friendly day of food and drink, live entertainment, and interactive games and activities, all showcasing the rich tapestry of cheeseburger culture and bringing together the Los Angeles community."
"... all showcasing the rich tapestry of cheeseburger culture...." which is very true.
This event celebrates the 100th Anniversary of the supposed first cheeseburger in Pasadena and the reason behind what you might us recall writing about year after year, Cheeseburger Week.
This sounds like a delicious tournament, one that might require you to test many of the contestants.
Will update you with any Cheeseburger updates or at the very least the top eight and winner. Start munching!

Top Secret Headquarters is now in Echo Park at 1816 Sunset Blvd, doubt they're ready for Free Comic Book Day, but they at least have a location again. And, I guess is the new name by adding the Top to Secret Headquarters.
Geeky Teas & Games moved to 900 W Alameda Ave, Burbank, CA, they had me at Kitten Cafe Caturdays, but it looks like an amzing place to play your board games at.

The Contestant LA Premiere May 6
Free Screening! L.A. Premiere!
"This true story of a Japanese reality TV star left naked in a room for more than a year, tasked with filling out magazine sweepstakes to earn food and clothing, prompts innumerable questions about our culture of oversharing.
Before the onslaught of reality television in the West, there was an ominous harbinger in Japan of what was to come in our oversharing-obsessed culture. THE CONTESTANT traces the experience of aspiring comedian Tomoaki Hamatsu, nicknamed Nasubi, who unwittingly became an extreme case study. While parts of Nasubi’s infamy have been recounted before on YouTube and This American Life, filmmaker Clair Titley and producer Megumi Inman bring a revelatory depth of insight by interviewing Nasubi, Tsuchiya, and others close to them."
