The fry guy is coming, and no, he isn’t a multicolored shaggy ball with no arms or legs. Morgan Spurlock is best known for opening our eyes to the dangers of fast food in Supersize Me. His film was followed by Don’t Eat This Book: Fast Food and the Supersizing of America, which further explored the American obesity epidemic. If you want to learn how to think outside of the (happy meal) box, this is the guy to see. He will speak on his career, his FX reality show 30 Days, and upcoming projects. Free (seating on a first come, first serve basis). 7 p.m. UNC-Charlotte Cone Center, 9201 University City Blvd. 704-687-2267.
