Welcome to the Punderdome. They're spoken word fight clubs for word nerds who will admit a passion for the most maligned form of humor; the pun.

When writer Joe Berkowitz first discovered this competition he knew he had to give it a try. So he left his pride behind and became a "pun hit wonder".

He takes us inside  the world of comic misfits in his book, Away with Words: An Irreverent Tour Through the World of Pun Competitions.
