Bedore's performance will benefit the School of Natural Resources and UNL's Wildlife Club, which will sell concessions during the event. Tickets cost $10 for student and balcony seats and $20 for ground-level seats. Seating is not reserved. Free parking will be available in the lot north of Hardin Hall.

Advance ticket purchases are recommended, said Scott Hygnstrom, UNL professor and one of the event's organizers. Tickets are available at http://snr.unl.edu, 472-3471, or at the Nebraska Maps and More Store, 101 Hardin Hall. If available, tickets will be sold at the door.

Bedore has a regular spot on the nationally syndicated radio program, "The Bob & Tom Show," and is a regular contributor to "Marketplace," a Public Radio International program. He is known for his humorous theory that there's an organized conspiracy of animals to attack humans.

Bedore has challenged School of Natural Resources faculty to participate after the event in a point-counterpoint-style debate on his animal conspiracy theories, Hygnstrom said.
