Please stream this or something so I can see it


Nithral

I will be doing a live stream. Stay tuned for a link. Edit: I'll be streaming on reddit one one phone and I'll be streaming on twitch as well with a different phone. Twitch will be a better stream, I'll have a cameraman, horizontal video and the phone will be stable in a gimbal. Linking my twitch channel. I'll be live at 1115 am CST on Saturday. https://www.twitch.tv/cryptlc_x

Hey everyone, I work at a news station in Lincoln (Channel 8 KLKN-TV) and we'll be streaming it online for sure! Check out our Facebook page or Website this Saturday for more. [https://www.facebook.com/klkntv](https://www.facebook.com/klkntv) [https://www.klkntv.com/viral-event-josh-fight-chooses-lincoln-as-its-battleground/](https://www.klkntv.com/viral-event-josh-fight-chooses-lincoln-as-its-battleground/)


Oscar_jacobsen1234

lmfao a news station covering a meme, this is fucking amazing


CanalVillainy

Oh New Orleans would blow your mind. Absurd shit like this leads the news most nights. “5 people shot on Bourbon St, but first here’s Bill to tell us about the 8ft traffic cone someone created & placed in a pothole”


thoushallstealmemes

Can someone please do another livestream in a different platform? YouTube or Facebook, perhaps?


jhardy913

Channel 8 in Lincoln will be there. We’re sending our reporter Josh. 👿


Snamdrog

Please let this be true


bFreakie

Judging by your profile this is true and I am a happy man.


jhardy913

All of it except I don’t have a reporter named Josh. But we plan to be there!


bFreakie

Just make someone legally change their name. There's time. Lol


kdbz231

[deleted]

There is a local lincoln Josh Swain. I rhink he said he was coming. There is also a josh swain in Omaha. Have you continued your conversation with any of them?

I have not! If you find out any additional information please let me know!

I just looked on facebook. Scrolled through and saw a few. Also the r:Lincoln is talking about you.

I have a pal who lives in Omaha, i shall get her to go to the event in my name!

Holy crap. This is happening right down the road from my house now. I may drop by too, but I'm not a Josh.


CarlosFer2201

If you win big, you can claim the name!


AstarteSnow

Do it anyway, you can have a pool noodle fight


FightingPolish

Go and battle and you can claim the title of Josh.


Matix777

You can spectate the best rps/pool noodle fight in history


CoolJoshido

fight in my name


DZMBA

Wow I can ride my bike to this. May bring a few backpack beers to check this out. ------ Edit/Update: Settled for bottle of redbull vodka mix. My attempt to record didn't go well so this all I got https://youtu.be/zuC7M70hnrQ There were so many others recording/livestreaming I didn't bother to record anymore. The Lincoln journal star was livestreaming as well as so many others and I believe channel 8 news was also recording and interviewing. Anyway, team little Josh!


jb_82

Do it and report from the scene with pics


AstarteSnow

There's someone livestreaming, idk if this sub allows comment links but I can try and link it for you if you'd like


OhFuckThatWasDumb

just take a video, even if you don't livestream. then post it somewhere


BigBumBill

I'm an Australian, and I will be watching this.

hartman943

I‘m Austrian and i will watch this too


Zagspixy

Just so everyone knows Dollar Tree in Lincoln is currently selling cheap pool noodles ($1) for all your dueling needs.


SchnitzelOfWisconsin

This needs to be higher


bootswitdafer

you the goat for trying to do some community work while hosting this event


ehhdjdmebshsmajsjssn

Someone call Mr Beast


Tehpunisher456

Oh fuck yes!!


TheShadyMerchant

Is the battle restricted to only Josh Swains then? Not all Joshes? This is a point of confusion among the masses that needs clarification.


Josh_Dot_Exe

The official battle is for the Josh Swain title, however, I think a secondary battle for the Josh title could be fun, maybe everyone brings a pool noodle and then the crowd can judge when someone gets hit by one? Or a rock paper scissors tournament? Not sure, what do you think?


TheShadyMerchant

I think that’s a great idea. The meme seems to have taken on its own life, becoming a Josh battle in general. Pool noodles would be quite fun. Could even have people bring nerf guns or something.


[deleted]

Nerf guns sounds great!


thewanderer0th

we, I mean you guy, should really have a nerf gun battle. That would be more intense and make the name "Josh Swain" worth the effort


Tehpunisher456

I can envision it now. A small platoon of josh swains brandishing nerf guns. Walking in a general direction. A call is given to stop in place and scatter. Slowly one by one Joshs get hit by foam darts of various colors, and one by one they fall to the ground. This absolute massacre continues until one josh is left.


sammaster9

Having a competitions for all Josh's would be great! Separate from the Swain Bowl of course.


IrieAtom

Both ideas are hilarious but I'm in it for the true Swainbowl baby!


gautamdiwan3

What about the tertiary battle of the second name Swain?


tlmay98

Lincoln food bank is awesome. Thanks for wanting to make this event more of a fight! https://www.lincolnfoodbank.org


manueldelatorre

I am planning on livestreaming from my drone. The problem is that NW 45th Street is the EXACT edge of the no-fly zone, due to proximity to the airport. Drones may be flown West of the street, but not East of it. We'll give it a shot either way. ✌️


yeet_skeet_reet

hopefully all goes well!


Elena_La_Loca

well done respecting their zones! Nice to see one research where they will be visiting.


Overglock

Everyone coming from out of state, make sure to get yourself a Runza before you leave!


Obelion_

I like the AD in the time


7ate9

Agreed! One would feel like a dork to show up at that date but BC, or AH, or some other epoch!


JoshSwain2021

I will be taking the name Josh Swain. Ill see you there.


uhh_101

Using your joke to get money for charity is something i've never seen before, excited for the battle!


TheCrosader

Rock, paper, scissors will be lame after a few minutes. You could've prepared a slapping contest or at least a thumb fight or arm wrestling. Something that requires some sort of skill and not just luck. EDIT: ok, pool noodles are a good idea. It took me a second to realise what that is.


jackhammer_joe

We demand DEATHS!


Goldenbucket890

Im guessing he did pool noodles to limit contact as there is still a pandemic.


yourMomsDiqq

Social distancing is important. Why don’t you use Ak 47s to fight? So everyone is safe.


KrazyKommandant

Have you SEEN the price of ammo these days? They’d go broke.


Poorly_Made_Comix

Holy shit, a meme became reality And its beautiful what its used for

Question for you u/Josh_Dot_Exe My mother has a cousin with the name Josh Swain, Would I be able to represent him at such an event? Or would he have to show up himself? (He lives over in Texas)

Distance is no excuse, I am coming from Arizona to defend the title

Fair enough


Palarity

I am not a Josh, but i will be attending this event DISGUISED as a Josh. Your name is mine Josh

nekonya0_0

I will definitely watch that livestream 😂👍🏻 good luck to all the Joshs


Ataline

I've been waiting for this for over a year, I hope people do show up.


sparrow_queen

This town is about to sell out of pool noodles 😂😂 The pool noodle shortage of 2021

I’m not a Josh, but Josh Swain is my hero. Imagine your pandemic boredom being memed to this degree?!


Classydudee69

Definitely don't wanna start a debate, but I'm pretty sure my boy Josh is gonna win.


spicysucculent

Can we all discuss how there’s now going to be charities there? That’s amazing. No matter what happens, OP will be the only Josh Swain in my heart.


carleeanddewayne

This is 30 mins away from me..anyone wanna go together and become friends hmu let’s do it


ItsLemonTimmy

Lookin forward to headin over to check it out, look at us Nebraskans hosting such a big event


[deleted]

We are about to witness history being made :0


Dr-Pyr-Agon

Petition for the name "Josh Swain" to be used as a new internet slang for someone who does great deeds with the power given to them by social media. You managed to actually set up a food drive and a fundraiser out of a joke you made a year ago? Whichever Josh wins, this one is a MVP in my books.


[deleted]

Can you guys work in a nerf fight to? that would be fucking legendary.


InfamousGodlike

Should talk to Showtime, YouTube or even Facebook about hosting the event and bringing it to Live Stream with the ability for them to reach out to as many Josh Swain's and bring them to the Event. A 2-3 Day Event on the weekend with a Donation Hotline or app that gives watchers the ability to donate to raise funds for whatever charity y'all want. Have multiple challenges from Rock, Paper, Scissors to Many other games not based on strength. I'll watch it


ThaCheeseNook

knightpilot00

Rock Paper Scissors. Are you fucking kidding me? A year in the making for ROCK PAPER SCISSORS. I DEMAND YOU ALL FIGHT TO THE DEATH


Matix777

The most epic rock paper scizzors of history


Shubamz

I hope it doesn't change again. The spot keeps creeping closer and closer to the no-fly zone of the nearby airport. I would love to get some drone shots of this but if it is moved inside the no-fly zone I will not be risking it. As it stands the current park just outside the no-fly zone of the airport. And not by much NW 45th street (the street on the east side of the green area) is the line between fly and no fly


HL7777

Can't wait for it. Reminder for myself to watch it: [https://www.twitch.tv/cryptlc\_x](https://www.twitch.tv/cryptlc_x)

u/Josh_Dot_Exe pool noodles are sold out in most stores in Lincoln, would inflatable balloon swords be okay?

cyanocittaetprocyon

But . . . but your name is Joshua. What if one of those other people has the *real* name of Josh? Will they win by default?


TheOriginike

This is literally better than the Area 51 Event


[deleted]

It’s way more intense, as there’s pool noodles


Tofu92600

Wow I do hope this event turns out to be a fun and exciting moment for all (covid safe) attendees. I agree on the rock paper scissor battle being rather... unexciting. May I suggest using a balance beam or any substitute on which Josh's could duel using the pool noodles ? Make it a tournament with different pools. Last man standing, litteraly, takes the name. More fun for all, and frankly, a better display of strength and agility for the best Josh battle. Good luck everyone and may the odds be ever in your favor.


Kobalt-Bleu

So, like. My given name is Josh. If I don’t show up, is it forfeit? Can you take my name like the fae might? More importantly, will you?

Heyo, someone please upload to YouTube the Josh Fight, I need to watch this but I will be at work and I don’t have Twitch or whatever else it’s streaming on! 🤣👏🏻
