Tammy and Paula -- A Night of Comedy

My sister-in-law, Paula, and I were sitting at a table that literally touched the stage at Visani’s comedy club last night.  We were there to see comedian, Tammy Pescatelli (Last Comic Standing, Tonight Show, and other shows).  She was terrific.  Very funny.

Everyone knows, it can be dangerous to be seated right by the stage during a comedy show.  But it turned out to be a good experience for us.  About a half dozen times during her hour and a half long show, Tammy interacted with Paula.  Their best moment occurred when Paula said to Tammy, “Tell the joke again.” Because we [the audience] didn’t quite get a comment she made.

Tammy said, “No, I’m not telling it again!  Who the h*** are you?  Martin Scorcese?”

Well, maybe you had to be there.  But in the moment it was funny.  No, really.  It was.

After the show was over, Tammy—who is such a nice person—graciously posed for a couple of pictures with us and then while we stood there staring uncomfortably at her for just a little too long, the police showed up.

So, I’m trying to figure out who to contact with my one phone call.  But in the meantime, I love how jail is now equipped with Wi-Fi.  Cool!
