5 Things: Punderdome at Littlefield

Plus, four more events in Brooklyn you should know about today.

1. Have some pun. Don’t miss Punderdome, NYC’s Most Puntastic Competition at Littlefield on Degraw Street tonight at 8 p.m. This monthly pun competition is hosted by a self-proclaimed “Rodney Dangerfield impersonator” and his alleged daughter (Fred and Jo Firestone). The first 18 individuals/duos to sign-up at the door will have a chance to participate in competitive spontaneous pun-making.

2. Get folksy. Come hear American Folk, Bucky Hayes and The Humdrums play The Way Station tonight at 8 p.m. Bucky Hayes is a Brooklyn-based, by way of Georgia, Singer-Songwriter.  Influenced by the melodies and craftsmanship of classic country and soul music, he constructs his own tunes and sound with roots in these styles filtered through the urban experiences, which are his everyday existence.

3. Urban Influence on Art. Check out Authentic Presents: Culture and Comics, an ongoing lecture series about the influence of urban and hip-hop culture on comics and sequential art. The series will feature well-known hip-hop and visual artists discussing the influence of both cultures on their work. The event is from 7 to 9 p.m. at Long Island University's Brooklyn Campus, in room LLC.

4. Check out summer camp. Does your kid have plans for the summer? Come to Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy, 334 Furman Street, for Oasis Day Camp - Brooklyn Bridge Park - Info Session. For more than a decade Oasis has provided children with amazing summers while staying close to home.  Now with the magnificent revitalization of the Brooklyn waterfront, in cooperation with the Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy, Oasis is thrilled to bring this opportunity to families in Brooklyn.

5. Move your car. Alternate side parking rules are in effect today.
