John Mulaney Show in BR - Stage Runner

I was near the front on the aisle. It was weird. She was either drunk or high (both) and seemed to just want to talk to him.

I’m glad security didn’t make some big deal out of it and she was handled easily.

Mulaney was absolutely hilarious though, as were the other two comics before him.

The best/saddest part was the first ten minutes of the show when he perfectly summed up the crime ridden hell hole Baton Rouge is becoming. He was in town less than 12 hours and his take away was spot on. I wish someone would send a clip of that first ten minutes to our mayor and let her see how the rest of the country perceives us now. Line of the night... "Don't worry Baton Rouge there is crime everywhere. I am from Chicago. We have crime in Chicago. The difference is there are nice parts of Chicago too."

That part was really funny but horribly embarrassing. I hope that is relayed to our fearless leaders. He even brought up Sherwood Forest by name. He's saying Chicago is better? WOW.

Also, why was the show moved to that ballroom? Didn't make any sense.

I'm guessing ticket sales were not what they expected.

Who opened for him?

It was going pretty good til he started sky screaming about trump for an hour

He did a few New Orleans shows last November under the same tour (so presumably mostly same material), I caught that and I bet a lot of BR people went to that one not knowing he’d end up coming here. One theory why ticket sales were poor

Seaton Smith and Dan Levy (not the more famous Dan Levy)

Both were great though Dan had me in stitches.

I was directly across the aisle from this girl. From the moment John came on stage, she was standing up and waving her arms, jumping into the middle of the aisle, basically anything she could to try to get him to notice her. Even during portions of the show when he wasn't doing audience work. When he asked if anyone had been to rehab, she immediately started jumping in the middle of the aisle and when he started only pointing to people towards the front, she took off.

She didn't even get booted. Ran back down the aisle and left the ballroom, came back about 10 minutes later, stayed another 10 minutes, then left crying with the guy she came with. She was absolutely trashed in one way or another, and I'm glad she left because it was kind of ruining the show for everyone in that area.
