FIND SOMETHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT OTHER THAN WHITE PEOPLE

First and last time I will ever go to see him the guy the hulk who opened for him was funny but after that I was not impressed and offended I have thick skin so for me to be offended saying something it was a roasting of white people and I didn't think it was funny at all totally disappointed 😔☹️..

EDDIE GRIFFIN.. JUST DO BETTER…

It’s is deeply disturbing/uncomfortable. Opinions aren’t jokes. Attacking a minority group isn’t a joke. “Joking” about how “we should go back to a time where we chase and kill f*g*o*s isn’t funny. It’s 2023 do better and find better material to “joke” about . It’s disgusting to know the venue would allow that. ESPECIALLY since Hamburger Mary’s is next door. Hate crimes are still exists and this is just proof you can’t even be safe at a “comedy show” . And Eddie just simply do better dude. Ignorance isn’t bliss. And projection isn’t cute.

DRUNK ON STAGE

I spent over $80 to see a drunk perform! Eddie Griffin is a very funny comedian when he’s doing a Stand-Up Special. But our Las Vegas trip at the SLS was ruined when Griffin performed drunk & he even drank on stage!

INTERRACIAL COUPLE, SIT IN BACK.

I'll give 1 star for the first few laughs I got until I literaaly became his show. I was so excited for my husband and I to go see him, and even more excited that we ended up with great seats. Midway through the show, it dawned on me that they placed us there FOR A SPECIFIC purpose, being the only interracial couple in attendance from what I could see. So, I sat there in the front and took his shit. There were even other people in the audience telling him that he was being pretty mean. Eventually I very quietly asked my husband if it would be considered rude to get up to use the restroom (had a UTI and the pre-show beverage hit me like a bullet train), and of course he called me out for talking in his show. So, I sat there in pain knowing that if I got up, he would make it about something else. Finally, because he wouldn't shut up and close the show I had no choice but to go. My husband left with me and of course we were heckled as if I we were doing the walk of shame; the white lady couldn't hack it and she controls the black man....bla, bla bla. Moral of the story, if you are an interracial couple, make sure you sit in the back; don't be the material for his show. OH, forgot to mention he was pretty sauced by the end.
