The iO Cagematch is the only show in Chicago with the sheer gall to declare that "Art is a competition". Each team will be given *exactly 18 minutes. The glory.

Every week the audience decides who is the best improv team in Chicago. "Art is a Competition" ~ Leonardo Da Vinci (probably)

Every Wednesday at 10:30 p.m., two teams take the stage in The Chris Farley Cabaret at iO Chicago, but only one team sees morning. What happens during that 18 minutes will surprise even the teams themselves. The team with the most support based on an audience vote will not

Tiger Bait vs Complex Species
Window to window merchants sell cinnamon-encrusted crullers, and you'll be beheaded if you use the Queen's Netflix account. EVEN if you use a different profile! @ iO Chicago

Simple Syrup vs Complex Species! Self-Help divorce therapy books used by the authors ex, f***l fun at Friday's, very meta ways of reminding teammates of the challenge, and the man who owns Savannah, GA. Come back next week for the second night of Black Tie July! @ iO Chicago

"A Tribe Called Uncanny" took a run at the reigning champs, "Complex Species". S**t got real at Epcot Center, and in the end we learned that we can all get along. It just takes ni****ne and apples. New challenge theme starts NEXT WEEK! @ iO Chicago

Congratulations: The EFFING Cagematch has an Instagram now. Follow 'iocagematch' for photos from the evening's performances!

This way, I can put up photos instantly from the evening and not have them be lost forever on my phone or Google Drive folder. Great stuff all around, we're all winners here.

From the office of The Commissioner, iO Cagematch, Chicago:

It's been awhile since I've posted an updated leaderboard. Current champion, Dogfood, is climbing their way up to the top!

Look, I don't know if I'm doing this right, but THE CAGEMATCH now has a SnapGramChatBookInstaFace. Surprisingly, I would expect 99% of these SnapGram communications to occur on Wednesday nights. It's a great way to peek in on Lé Cáge from afar; you know, if you're not in Chicago that week. 'Cause if you're in Chicago- you'll probably be at The Cagematch. Let's see if this part of social media is WORTH IT.

Yes, we'll still take photos to document the night; and yes, I (mike) will take months to get them up. BUT THEY'LL BE THERE. .

Every Wednesday at 10:30 p.m., two teams take the stage in The Chris Farley Cabaret at iO Chicago, but only one team sees morning.

Each team will be given *exactly 18 minutes. What happens during that 18 minutes will surprise even the teams themselves. The team with the most support based on an audience vote will not just return the following Wednesday to defend their title against a new challenger. They will receive the undisputed title of Best Improv Team in Chicago.

The passion. The glory. The iO Cagematch.
