Fan-Favorite “Richard Dreyfuss Slam Poetry Tent” Removed From Topsfield Fair Rotation
TOPSFIELD - Fans of the long-running Richard Dreyfuss Slam Poetry Tent at the Topsfield Fair are going a bit Nuts after the fair announced it was going to do away with the event after a recent incident in which Dreyfuss decided to show off a different set of Jaws and ended up Down And Out in Beverly.
The actor was on stage in Beverly in an event where people presumed it would just be Some Old Man Reading Love Stories, but instead it was Mad Dog Time and the 76 year old actor was seeing Red. We can’t write out what he said here, but it was far from an Opus and felt a bit more like a bunch of Paranoia. The Crew at the Cabot issued an apology from the Edge after a weekend ripe with articles where various attendees used the Buddy System and put together some various Inserts into international media.
Leave it to the Topsfield Fair to issue the Big Fix by cancelling all future instances of his Slam Poetry tent at the Fair going forward. Some attendees were disappointed and wanted a Close Encounter with Richard, but the Fair are holding firm and have decided to Stand By their decision to Let It Ride. “There’s plenty to do at the Fair,” said one of The Lightkeepers at the fair. “You can see plenty of Tin Men, an entire Valley of the Dolls, and you can see our attendant James and the Giant pumpkin, which only shows up Once Around the autumn season every year.”
Despite the Silent Fall of this classic event in the Fair’s history, it’s good that a bunch of Very Good Girls had the Last Word. Dreyfuss wasn’t available for comment, but he reportedly said something around the lines of “I thought I would have The Last Laugh but now My Life is in Ruins!” When asked what they would replace it with, various employees asked “What About Bob?” referring of course to comedy legend Bob Odenkirk.
