Bruce Campbell Comes to Net Heads
for Hulkathon 2001

They came at midnight. Waves of them. Nonstop. We weren't ready for them and they swarmed the place.

Gamers - some barefoot, some drinking beer and all playing the latest games on the latest computer hardware. And as if an all night fest of bloodshed wasn't nearly enough, Net Heads, along with Hulkathon promoter Robert Waring, succeeded in capping off the event with a live appearance by Bruce Campbell.

What follows is a brief photographic and video record.

The Photographs

All these photographs are self explanatory (which is a lame excuse for "we didn't want to insult the customers, promoters, attendees and celebrities"). Some of the pictures can be enlarged by clicking on them, but not all warranted that. If you have a special request, please let us know.

The place was so crowded that we had to let people in and out in shifts at times.

We shot some panorama views to show what the event was like (click to enlarge) and a Quicktime panorama (you must have Quicktime installed to view it).

Brian Craft and Aaron Mack from 8 Ball Entertainment operated the video cameras and filmed the event.

Bruce on a cell phone teasing some fan who couldn't make it. Sounded like he was selling insurance, but we're not sure.

The Pig Roast!

Bruce with Jane (an instant fan). No, she's not grabbing his butt as far as you know.

Matt Fox directed the filming of the event and did an outstanding job!.

The Video Interview / Question & Answer
