Napoleon Dynamite Festival 1





I went to the 2nd Annual Napoleon Dynamite Festival in Preston, Idaho yesterday. Preston, as you know by now, is where the movie was filmed. I went on a bus tour of the major film sites and then watched a number of impersonation-related contests (look-alike, dance, voice imitation), which was interspersed with performances by the Happy Hands Club. Pictures (top to bottom): (1) The tour was conducted on the actual bus used in the movie, driven by the actual bus driver, who is a real local bus driver in Preston. This is her. (2) Rex and Starla's house. (3) Summer's house. (4) The house where Uncle Rico made a sales call on the way to bringing Napoleon to the prom. (5) The spot from which Napoleon threw a grapefruit at Uncle Rico's van, leading to a scuffle and ending with Napoleon jumping that fence.
