Black Feud Moves On to Fisticuffs with Max

BIH_avatar_tucker.jpgThis weekend Tucker Max, the notorious and hilarious misogynist author of I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell accepted Michael Ian Black's call for a fist fight in another attempt to promote My Custom Van on his blog (note: not for the faint of heart). I think Black is mad that David Sedaris never jumped into the feud and now has his sights set on a more willing accomplice. Anyways, according to Max

I'll even promise to show up drunk as shit. I'll drink an unreasonable amount of alcohol before we fight--20 beers, 30 beers, whatever it takes to me plastered. And if you don't think I'm drunk enough, I'll keep drinking. As long as I am conscious and able to stand on my feet, I'll fight you.

And here's the kicker:
If you beat me, I'll give you the next royalty check from my book.
It should be about 150k, give or take agent fees and other things. I am completely serious.

Ummmmm, how can I get in on this action?

Black's complete call to arms against Tucker can be read here and his musings on when and where it will take place is here.

More as this story develops.
