Newseum to Open “Anchorman” Exhibit in November

Ron Burgundy and friends are getting their own major museum exhibit just in time for the sequel.

It isn’t April 1, so we’re assuming the press release from the Newseum about a planned
“Anchorman” exhibit opening in November is genuine. November 14, the museum joins
forces with Paramount Pictures to present “Anchorman: The Exhibit,” which will coincide
with the release of
Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues in December. Among the items on display: Ron Burgundy’s jazz flute, a re-creation
of the KVWN-TV anchor desk, and a news set where visitors can pretend to be Brick
Tamlin.

Items we hope are included, but unconfirmed for now:

  • Sex Panther perfume.
  • Many leather-bound books.
  • A trident.
  • Milk.
  • Lamp.
  • Bears.
  • A glass case of emotion (although if you think about it, that’s basically what the
    Newseum is, only on a much larger scale).

We look forward to updating this when we learn more, but for now, you stay classy,
Pennsylvania Avenue.
