It all comes after most of the cast of “The Princess Bride” reunited Sunday night to read the script of the 1987 classic and raise funds for the Wisconsin Democrat party. The stars that participated included, Cary Elwes, Robin Wright, Carol Kane, Mandy Patinkin, Billy Crystal and more.

According to USA Today, more than 110,000 people watched “A Virtual Princess Bride Reunion” special after each supporter donated at least $1 to get access to the evening’s affair.

“Tonight’s once-in-a-lifetime Princess Bride reunion changes the odds on who wins Wisconsin,” Ben Wikler, chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin shared. “This is by a mile the biggest grassroots fundraiser that we have ever had.”

“Chipping in to register for tonight, and post signing up to volunteer tonight, can make the difference between the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration, and another four years of the Trump nightmare,” he added, per the outlet.

The “Parks and Recreation” event takes place Thursday, September 17, at 8 p.m.
