The deranged adventures of Gonzo journalist Hunter Thompson and his attorney Oscar Acosta,
referred to in the movie as "Laslow". Thompson attempts to cover the Super Bowl and the
1972 Presidential election in his typical drug-crazed state, but it continually and
comically sidetracked by his even more twisted friend Laslow. Allegedly based on actual
events.
