Funniest Man on the Planet

Dave Chappelle once again proved why he is the funniest man on the planet. He came with pretty much no material and put on a hilariously funny show starting off with a standing ovation from the sold-out Agganis Arena, home of BU hockey. "I said, make sure black people can’t find me. Put me in a hockey arena!"

"I appreciate you all coming out. It’s no fun when it’s just me by myself. I learned that the hard way. Or as you know it, ‘Chappelle’s Show: Season Three, the Lost Episodes.’

His hour long routine featured mainly political humor and warning the crowd to not let the media distract them from what is really important. He had many stories on Boston including one about a fight with a crystal meth addict and how he's scared of Boston cops because "they used to wear them Nazi boots!" He also mentioned Crispus Attucks, "that niggas needs a statue," and how the Boston Tea Party was "the gayest shit I've ever heard."

Chappelle had the crowd laughing the entire time and for $60 he better make us laugh. But the surprise of the night had to have been Joe DeRosa, who opened for Chappelle. That's like opening up for Prince, it's not easy. But DeRosa came out full force and was just as funny as Dave. From bits on why guy drinks don't have names, plenty of sex jokes, birthday presents ("How come they always tell you what they almost got you?"), being adopted and why gay men live a better life than straight men. But as tough of a city Boston can be when it comes to comedy, Joe DeRosa left to a standing ovation.
