Charlie Sheen is crazy awesome

It doesn't reek of just that though, it's not like they were hurting for ratings in the first place.

Charlie Sheen Crossing is wonderful.

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - The Bakersfield Condors have announced details for Charlie Sheen Night, Saturday, Mar. 12 when they take on the Idaho Steelheads at Rabobank Arena. That night is also St. Patrick's Jersey Off Our Backs night. Doors open at 6 p.m., the puck drops at 7 p.m.

Many Charlie Sheen-themed events will surround the night, making light of the cultural-phenomenon, including ticket and food deals, a dress up contest and even a twitter World Record attempt.

Wear a fedora, or dress like any Charlie Sheen movie character and receive admission for two and a half bucks ($2.50).Bring a clean drug test and receive free admission.2-for-1 Tiger Blood Icees and snow cones for the kids.The first 1,000 males will receive a Charlie Sheen face on a stick mask.Follow the Condors on twitter and we're confident you won't be nearly as entertained as if you followed Charlie Sheen on twitter. However, the Condors are inviting everyone to sign up to follow the Condors on twitter (http://twitter.com/condors), and if we beat Charlie's Guinness World Record of reaching one million followers in less than 25 hours and 17 minutes, we'll let Charlie rename the team, as he seems to have a lot of creative ideas lately.Bring $2 million (reportedly as much as Charlie doesn't earn with each cancelled episode) and you can own the Condors!Charlie's dubbed "Goddesses" (Natalie Kenly and Rachel Oberlin) have been named as honorary captains for the game. We're guessing the Steelheads won't mind if they get to hang out on the bench.A rock band from Mars will play in front of the arena on the plaza before the game.Before this game, the Condors aren't going to practice, attempting to channel Sheen's no-rehearsal-required spirit. After all, to quote the great Allen Iverson, "We're talkin' about practice !"

"We picked this date for the Charlie Sheen Night because we figured St. Patrick's Day was a Holiday that Charlie enjoyed celebrating," said Condors President Matthew Riley. "We would invite him come up to the game and participate in a ceremonial puck drop and just have fun for the night with our fans. We'll even give him the ticket special for dressing up like himself."

"And oh yeah," adds Riley. "To stick with the Charlie Sheen theme, we plan on 'winning' the game."

Fuck, the Condors have already won with that press release.

I'm laughing right along with Sheen at anyone who thinks this is anything but a work. Dude probably just got bored, fuck knows what I'd do if I had his money and fame. Probably be worse.

Did they work his being fired from the show that made him all that money? Because that just happened.

Now I want Charlie Sheen playing himself ala Rick Springfield on the next season of Californication.

So the fact that he got fired from the show means he's actually crazy? Because that's what I mean when I say 'a work'. Dude isn't crazy.

Sometimes I wonder if this was all brought on by Charlie Sheen actually watching an episode of Two and a Half Men.

Charlie Sheen plays Call of Duty

And did they work him holding his wife at knifepoint? Did he work his decades of spousal abuse, drug addiction and mental illness?

I'm sure a lot of this is a publicity stunt - stuff like him setting up a Twitter account right after his quotes became something of a meme, or "Charlie's Corner" shows that he's far more self-aware than just some babbling maniac, but the whole thing is not a "work". He's just realised that people are keen to listen to him, so he's going to keep spouting nonsense. But I don't think it started out that way - and there's a real danger that, if he comes out in a couple of months and says "it was all a joke", there'll be a little bit of outrage from the media that wasted their time giving a shit, but the majority of people will praise his creativity, and it'll mask the genuine problems that lead to the Charlie Sheen we see today, and also the decades of borderline sociopathic behaviour. But maybe that's the plan...

Incidentally, Sheen claims that his contract states that even if he leaves Two And A Half Men, he'll still draw his salary from it so long as the show is still in production, but Warner Bros. are claiming that as he was fired, and with just cause, rather than leaving, that contract is void. Cue the ensuing legal bullshit.

How much coke did Charlie Sheen do?

Enough to kill two and a half men.
