Hometown Jackass does good!

Bam Margera,one of the original members of the "Jackass"crew and star of MTV's "Viva la Bam" & "Bams Unholy Union",plans to open a theater in his hometown of West Chester,PA.Best known for tormenting his poor parents,April & Phil and his uncle,Don Vito,with pranks and practical jokes(he has destroyed several of his uncles cars and set off firecrackers in his parents bedroom at 4 am,all on TV),he says he "just wants to own a piece of West Chester".He expects to open in the spring and show films and showcase standup comedians & musical acts.
Bam is also a professional skateboarder and has produced skateboarding videos,AND starred on film-all at the tender age of 28.Alot of early "Jackass" stunts were filmed in and around his suburban Philly hometown and this is a great thing-to give back to his local community.
I dont know about the rest of you,but I am probably the only female over 16 that has seen ever episode of "Jackass" on TV and both movies and laughed my ass off!Everybody knows somebody in their family or circle of friends who does crazy off the wall stunts or plays elaborate practical jokes on people.I dont like the gross stuff,like one of them going into a plumbing supply store and crapping in a floor model toilet,or sticking Hot Wheels cars in a place where the sun dont shine but the physical comedy of the stunts is amazing.
In closing,I will just say"Viva la Bam!!!"
