Stephen Colbert is coming to Philadelphia.

We'll say it again: Stephen Colbert is coming to Philadelphia.

Because the Pennsylvania primary is shaping up to be such a big deal (or isn't it?), Colbert announced on his show last night that he'll be in Philadelphia the week leading up to the Primary (April 14-17). Although the tickets to the four tapings were gone by this morning (likely, by the 1:30AM re-airing of the show), there's a good chance that he'll be out and about in our fair city a good deal during that week, and maybe for a few days before or after. So we thought we'd have us a little contest:

Stalk Stephen Colbert. Let us know where you see him. Let us know if you talk to him. Let us know what he's eating, what he's drinking, and what he's wearing. And above all, take pictures. The Phillyist reader who takes the best picture of Stephen enjoying Philadelphia will win a prize so fabulous that we can't even reveal it yet. (Let's put it this way: it's not just another Phillyist t-shirt.)

You've got almost a month to figure out your stalker strategy. Be sure to send us tips if you find out where (other than on Penn's campus) Stephen will be ahead of time. Now, put "I'll Be Watching You" on you iPod (you know you have it), dress yourself in camouflage, grab your camera, and go nail yourself a pundit!

Update: Digg this, please! If we make the front page, we may also make the Report.
