Local theater meets Big Wild Life, apparently leaving the staff of Fairbanks candidate for Senate Joe Miller confused.

This press release from the candidate Tuesday:

U.S. Senate Candidate Joe Miller is inviting Sen. Lisa Murkowski to a televised debate at the Wilder Marston Theatre, located in the Loussac Library in Anchorage.

Ah, Joe; that would be the "Wilda Marston Theatre" in the Loussac Library. The "wilder" part is outside on the library lawn where the geese gather. Sometimes late at night a red fox even shows up to try to snatch a goose.

All of which is why Anchorage pitches itself as home to the Big Wild Life outside the Marston Theatre and other buildings.
