  • WINNERS ANNOUNCED: AUSTIN: Attend @GandtheW’s private screening of HORRIBLE BOSSES (bonus: free beer and food!)

    CHECK OUT THE FULL LIST OF WINNERS AFTER THE BREAK. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO ENTERED; YOUR HORRIBLE BOSS STORIES WERE AWESOME, SAD, AND INSANE!

    Is your boss a slave-driving psycho? Is your boss a total sleazy tool? Is your boss a sexed crazed man-eater? Well, then GATW has a refreshing night of relaxation for you. We've teamed up with the nice folks at Warner Bros. to give 81 Austin readers a chance to attend GATW's private screening of HORRIBLE BOSSES, starring Jason Bateman, Charlie Day, Jason Sudeikis, Jennifer Aniston, Colin Farrell, Jamie Foxx, and Kevin Spacey on Thursday, June 30th at the Alamo Drafhouse, South Lamar. I personally picked this theater because it's the best in the world.

    That's not all, though, the Brothers and GATW are throwing a party before the film screens. That will be at the Highball in the ballroom from 6:30PM to 7:30PM, where cold beers and cheeseburger sliders will be served. Then, at 7:30PM, we'll head over to the Drafthouse for the screening.

    There are roughly 670,000 residents in Austin (I know. I checked. Online.) and we only have 81 seats to give away, so here's how you can win a spot: in the form below, tell us one of your "horrible boss" stories. It can be a supervisor, manager, or CEO - they just have to have been your superior and an asshole to you at least once. If you've been lucky to have never faced a horrible boss, make up a gnarly story. I'll go through all of them and select my favorites and announce all the winners on June 25th. Good luck, movie lovers!

    PLEASE ONLY ENTER IF YOU CAN SURELY ATTEND THE SCREENING. ONE ENTRY PER HOUSEHOLD. MUST BE AT LEAST 17 YEARS OF AGE TO ENTER. NO PURCHASE NECESSARY.

      Do we get a +1?

        It’s only good for one seat since we only have 82 seats to fill. If you want to bring a guest, make sure they enter the contest as well.

        Good luck!

          Makes sense. Thanks. She did.

            My name is on the list but I didn’t get an email. Do I need the email or can I just show up?

              Hey Ryan,

              You may want to check your spam folder – I just looked at my sent messages and the email I sent you is in there.

              If not, is there another email I can reach you at?

          There are only 35 names listed…what about the other 47? Are the 82 only for the drinks and meat and the rest of the screening is open to the rest of the winners?  Have those been notified yet?  I would like a ticket to the screening.  I do not drink or eat meat so the bowling place is a waste on me.  Just the screening is fine with me!

            Those are reserved for GATW’s staff. Hopefully we’ll get you next round.
