Walking across the country so you don't have to...

4 We are going to do did something stupid...
We're walking We walked from Chicago to San Francisco.  Many have responded with, "You guys are stupid!"  Some, on the other hand, have said, "Wow, that's cool!"  Either way, we hope you'll keep coming back to see what will happen next in our walking adventures.

So, Who are you guys?
We are Andy, Erik and John (and, for a little while, Jason).  We are were in our upper twenty-somethings and live in the Chicagoland area.  We'd be lying if we said we're the most interesting people in the world, but you can learn more about us as this site develops, we promise.

Now, we know you've got more questions, and we've got answers.


For those who didn't notice it before we do have an online store where you can buy your own stuff with our stupid (yet cool) logo on it!

John, Erik and Andy
This is us: John, Erik, and Andy
Yes, we're aware
that we're freakin'
nuts. J

21 years later...:
Yes, it's been over 20 years since we completed The Walk.

  • Andy is still Andy, only better, of course.
  • Erik is married to Jen and they have a daughter named Wynter.
  • John is married to Becky and they have two sons named Sam and Flynn.
  • Also, John just went back to school to go from IT to Biology. Yep.
More to come. Maybe. If you're lucky. :)
Otherwise, go read some Journals!
View All Updates (older updates have been hidden to make the page load faster)
Check out the Photo Gallery for photos taken while preparing for the trip as well as some totally stupid videos! We'll be updating this while on the trip, but the updates will be a bit delayed, of course.

Don't worry, you can still contribute to our trip by buying YouGuysAreStupid.com stuff at our online store.  Get shirts, hats, undies, stickers and other stuff with our logo and/or web site address fashionably affixed.  If you want to buy something and can't find what you like at the store, please let us know and we'll see if we can't find or make what you're looking for!

We've choosen the American Cancer Society as our charity o' choice. All contributions will be applied to this charity with a small portion of proceeds used to help fund our trip. Check out the Contribute page for more details.

Hey, as amazingly unimportant as they might seem, the Random Polls are now finally working, so vote your behind off and see how many other people think like you do, ya big freak! (If you don't see a Random Poll in the side bar under the Contribute box, just refresh this page a few times until one appears - they are random, you know.)

We've got a new Guestbook and you can sign it and everything. On the other hand, if you are looking for a conversation or twenty, check out the new Bulletin Board.  If it doesn't work, just remember, they were both Erik's ideas!

The Ask Kevin page has become the Ask Kev & Sor page because we've signed on our good friend Chris (also known simply as "Hoser" or just "Sor" because he is originally from Minnesota and says "aboot" and "hoos" instead of "about" and "house") to work along-side Kevin answering your questions and providing knowledge. Note: sometimes Sor's knowledge will be random, but it tends to be true!

The trip start date has changed (it was originally May 11th.) Check it out on the Trip Info page!

The plan is to put some highlights of the trip here on a very frequent basis, but as you might have figured out, the trip hasn't started yet, so we don't have much in the way of highlights!  Be sure to peep down here each time you visit the site.  Don't worry, there's tons more content coming to the site, we promise.
 

We're not affiliated with stupid.com, but their site has an awesome amount of stupid stuff on it and, hopefully, they don't mind us linking to them.  We would also like to thank gorp.com, as their site was immensely helpful in planning this crazy-fest.  Check out their site to find out about how to do all kinds of things from making spiffy camp sites to snazzy igloos.

It took a while to decide upon a domain name, but when we thought of the reactions to our little plan so far, youguysarestupid.com seemed to fit best. J

We'll have a site worthy of your full attention soon, so stay tuned if you're looking for some stupid entertainment!  (We apologize if it turns out to be really interesting instead of totally stupid.)
