The O. Henry Museum Pun-Off World Championships is one of Austin's oldest "weird" public outdoor events, now celebrating 40 jeers of quick-witted punning, the so-called lowest form of humor. And its also a fundraiser for Brush Square Museums to collect audience donations to preserve the wonderful historic homes of short story writer O. Henry (William Sydney Porter) and Alamo survivor Susanna Dickinson. The museum doesn't just pass the hat, it passes the Porter Potty Bedpan!

Slide show made with Animoto includes video clips of the celebrity punster panel, Once A-Pun A Time.
