Cougars, Inc. Tour To Hit Miami – Update x6

release_party_invite_20110506_miamiThe lovely Catalina Rodriguez, one of the stars of Cougars, Inc., has sent a Tweet saying that she is on her way to Miami for tomorrow night’s screening event (6th May 2011).  This event was listed in the previously announced set.

According to the text of the invite the event will start at the Sun Life Stadium with the cast throwing out the 1st pitch (which I gather is a big thing) at the Florida Marlins game at 7:10pm 6:45pm.  After that there will be a red carpet event for the DVD release party at the Eden Roc Hotel.

We know from the Cold Case season 6 episode Stealing Home that Kathryn looks great on the baseball pitch so let’s hope she will be attending :-)

Catalina included a small image of the invite, but I found a larger version on her Facebook page.  I have added it to the Gallery for safe keeping.

Update (6th May, 18:30BST): An article by Ben Crandell has been posted on the Sun Sentinel website about members of the cast being at the game tonight.  Apparently there will be autograph signing session at 6pm at the stadium.  Christian Murphy is said to be throwing the first pitch.  Kathryn is not mentioned at all in the short piece.  You can read the article HERE.

Update 2 (6th May, 19:45BST): A few minutes ago a Tweet by Catalina says that the Eden Roc Hotel has been postponed due to weather conditions.  This is becoming quite the rollercoaster ride.

Update 3 (7th May, 19:15BST): Yesterday Catalina sent another Tweet, this time with a picture of her with Christian Murphy and Cary Alexander (Cougars, Inc. co-stars) at the stadium.  Those three are the ones that were listed in Ben Crandell’s Sun Sentinel article suggesting that that was the planned extent of cast members present in the city.  I’ve found few additional references online to this event.  Great publicity.  No updated on the rescheduling of the red carpet event has been forthcoming.  The weather looks a little better in Miami today.

Update 4 (8th May, 11:50BST): Late last night Miami time Catalina sent another Tweet and updated her Facebook page with a message that she had to leave Miami early because of another work commitment.  The use of “early” implies that there is more to come from the tour in Miami.

Update 5 (8th May, 21:00BST): Posts on Christian Murphy’s Facebook page suggest that the remaining cast members that went to Miami are leaving today.  At the time of  writing it is mid-afternoon in Miami so I’d say it is unlikely that there are any further promotional events to do.  Perhaps we’ll have more luck with New York tomorrow, assuming it happens at all.

Update 6 (10th May, 7:45BST): Catalina (who has become our primary source for information regarding this alleged tour) posted on her Facebook Fan page about a promotional photoshoot that took place in Miami with Christian Murphy and Cary Alexander.  The photoshoot was done by professional photographer Maria Lankina (her site is a bit NSFW) and for what it’s worth you can see the photos here.  It is increasingly clear that Kathryn was not in Miami, and was probably never going to be, though her not taking part in this photoshoot is not really proof of that.  Catalina’s Facebook posts also mention visiting other cities in the future, but there is no further info.  I’ve updated the previous post about the tour to record what has and hasn’t happened.

    Maybe the pitch will be televised, I do hope that Kathryn does attend. She did say that she can’t throw, hopefully she can after filming “Moneyball” last summer.

    Too bad I don’t live anywhere in Miami. :p

    Why can’t they throw out a pitch at a Sox game instead? :p

    • icywinter2

      @Lolly- We don’t know if Kathryn herself will be there, I was in Miami just last month and even passed by the stadium. I’m a Mets fan, me being a New Yorker :) Hopefully Kathryn does show up, I would love to see her out more in public.

    First off with the tours first happening and now being cancelled. I don’t know if this now true. Catalina should have specified who was coming, I’m wondering if this is actually going to happen. How do we know it won’t get cancelled at the last minute??

    I like to know the real reasons behind the cancellations, yet Asher never says. There’s something fishy, I don’t know but I do hope this event is still on, including the DVD release party and that Kathryn will be there.

    It’s like we’re being thrown for a loop every time there’s an event being held for Cougars Inc. We get all excited then it never happens. See what I’m saying??

  • icywinter2

    What exactly is going on?? This is really getting out of hand, to the point they should just call the whole thing off. Every single event has been either cancelled for called off.

    I figured that Kathryn wasn’t going to be there, I don’t think they have the money to have all the cast members attend all these events; for a movie that nobody knows about that’s just going to be premire on dvd next week.

    Think about it, why does this keep on happening? Yet I think has a lot to do with expense with travel, plane tickets aren’t cheap neither is the rising cost of gas which is almost or now 4.00 a gallon.

    • The Boston cancellation, done as it was without making an explanation publicly known, appears to have happened in time to not greatly inconvenience anyone.

      This time Catalina, and I assume others, are in Miami and the bad weather has prevented the event going ahead at the expected time. It’s no one’s fault. Just bad luck.

      The whole tour is cursed :-)

  • Lolly

    Ah! Stupid weather. I keep getting excited to see this stuff, then it gets canceled. :( It should have been a Sox game. :) We’re having gorgeous weather. 😀 Sucks to suck, Florida. (:

  • icywinter2

    @Lolly- We have better weather here in NC, it’s warm and sunny:) I rather had them place in NY, go Mets or Yankees :) Now that would be a game if KM was there that would be awesome.

    @RichE- I agree the whole tour is cursed. They really should just hold one big party in LA to celebrate the release of the DVD and be done with. No tours it seems to be a problem and just is getting worse.

  • Lolly

    We’re at 70 degrees. 😀
    And yes, the tour is most definitely cursed. :p

    • icywinter2

      @Lolly- You’re more up north, last week it was close to 90. It doesn’t matter. Getting back to the tour, it could win for the most cancellations. Back and forth one moment it’s one then then next cancelled.

      I wonder why they still want to do it. I don’t they should…

  • icywinter2

    I wouldn’t bank on the next tour being successful either, it seems as if the same thing will happen. The problem clearly isn’t about to go away, it would be smart to just cancel the whole thing.

    For a movie that’s being released onto DVD, there’s so many problems. It’s enough, why even tour?? It’s just a movie that’s being released onto DVD, it never it theaters. Most people never heard of this movie.

    I don’t see why they need to….
