Turns Out a Fake Oscar and a Tux Can Get You Anything — Including a Free Car!

The Academy Awards are the biggest night in Hollywood, bringing together hundreds of high-profile people, so you can imagine there is some serious security surrounding the exciting event. Each year, stars, guests, and even people working at the Oscars get screened, show their IDs and credentials, and go through metal detectors before they're allowed in; there's even beefed-up police presence on the streets, road closures, and bag checks. But apparently all that doesn't really matter if you have an Oscar in your hand. Mark David Christenson suited up in a tuxedo and acted like an Oscar winner in a prank video for New Media Rockstars to see just how much access he could get. Watch the video to find out just what — and where — his "Academy Award" got him.
