Startup Grind Silicon Valley

Want to be a superhero? Join us Thursday night for the Avengers!

Century 20 Downtown Redwood City

People have been saying that tech entrepreneurs are the new rock stars. That's all well and good, but we think it’s time to aim a bit higher. We think it’s time to put our Thiel hats on and try to accomplish something really ambitious:

It’s time for tech entrepreneurs to become the new superheroes.

I can see it now: Captain Instagram, Wonder Woman 2.0, even the all mighty Kickstarter.

Ready to suit up? Join us Thursday night for the midnight showing of Avengers. Think of it as a training session.

We’ll be at the Century 20 Theater in downtown Redwood City. They’ve promised to open as many screens as we need to accommodate the group, so bring your friends. No product demos, ping pong contests, or fireside chats (unless of course real life superhero Elon Musk decides to show up), just a chance to hang out and have a good time with good friends.

Derek, still a mixup. My bad.
There are 3D shows at: 1203, 1207.
And 2D shows at: 1205, 1206, 1208.
It looks like no shows at 12:04.
Please advise.
(And where are you guys hanging out, for those of us with no cell phone?)

Fandango is awkward now. There are shows at 1201, 1204, 1206 .... well there are 4 shows on 4 different screens.
What time are we going to watch it? And if someone has a Fandango ticket already, let us know, so we can try to sit in the same theater.

Will they be selling tickets at the entrance or do we have to buy off fandango?

If you're coming to Avengers tonight look for me in a green sweater. We'll save some places in line and try to save a few seats in the theater if we don't get threatened to move. See you tonight!
