Artie Moffa, the college friend of mine who wrote the poetry in Wildlife Tycoon: Venture Africa, recently took 4th place at the Boston Poetry Slam Quarter Finals at the Cantab Lounge in front of an audience of 200. This win qualified him to perform at the Middle East nightclub with 9 other poets. The winner at the Middle East will fly to Vancouver to represent Boston in the World Poetry Slam.
Artie performed two 3 minute segments during the quarter finals. During the second segment, he performed several limericks which were written (but not actually used) in Venture Africa.
If you're in the Boston area, and you want some GREAT entertainment tomorrow (Saturday, Dec 2), head to the Middle East (472 Mass Ave). An All-Star showcase starts at 8PM, the Poetry Slam starts at 9PM.
Artie is an incredibly funny and talented poet. Check out some of his poems on his website here:
Poem 1 (Note, there's two pages)

If you're in Boston, go cheer him on, and say hi after the show!
