For this being my first comedian show, I was excited. Our friend told us that he was pretty good and that he would be here locally at valley forge casino so I bought tickets. The show was not what I was expecting, I guess. He just wasn't funny. I laughed a few times but it was never more beyond a chuckle. I was expecting to receive more entertainment for the cost of these tickets. I don't mind crude humor, but Artie and his opening act were a little rude at times, and it often felt like they were beating a dead horse by staying on the same topic. Several groups of people left in the middle of the show and boo'd and yelled "you suck". I would not go back to see Artie Lange, or recommend his show. Our friend, who recommended that we see the show with him said that he too was disappointed with the show this time around. He thought Artie really went downhill. I'll have to do more research before I buy tickets next time!
