Patton Oswalt Tickets

Before I saw the show, I liked Patton Oswalt just fine and thought it would be fun to go. He was funnier WAY beyond my wildest expectations. He covered so many things... from challenges he faces raising his daughter to his unique interpretation of "The Little Drummer Boy." I left feeling so upbeat... the laughter was good for the soul - especially during these turbulent times (of wacky election results and holiday stress). His time on stage was up far too soon. Hope he comes back to NC again!

Honest, Authentic, Funny!! You will leave thinking you made a friend.

Patton Oswalt was very engaged and funny. The opener comedian was also very good. We had a great time. I would totally recommend it.

Oswalt only had 2 tour dates, and Raleigh was fortunate to be one of them. The other is, unsurprisingly, LA. He did new material, and a lot of crowd work that was awesome. He also did comedy surrounding the grief over the loss of his wife and the difficulty in raising his daughter alone. It doesn't sound like it would be funny, but it was--and touching. Good comedy moves the audience through several emotions, so that the laughter at the end is cathartic. He did that wonderfully.

Patton came out for a 100 minutes set in Raleigh after his opener finished a 10 minute warm up. Dealt with Trumps and the elephant in the room (Michelle's passing) but much of the material was spontaneous and improvisational with the audience - at least a third of the show (with varied results). That said, Patton was everything we know and love already - genuine, human and witty. Using laughter to get over life's tragedies isn't new, but Mr. Oswalt has perfected itt. Bravo!

Patton Oswalt is a comic genius, and you should see him whenever you get a chance. This tour, however, showcases his ability to wrest comedy from tragedy. If you had to sum up the theme of this show in one sentence, it would be: Never give up.

Patton did a great job telling funny stories, jokes, and interacting with the audience. For a guy who lost his wife this past year and still make others laugh and forget about their problems is unbelievable. He is one of the best comedians today.

It just wasn't as good as I thought Patton could be.

The content of the show was good.. I did laugh. However, he was late. He only did a half hour set and no encore.. I know we are supposed to cut him some slack due to the problems in his personal life. however He read from notes the whole time.. Every time he changed subject he had to use notes.. I dont expect that from a professional, using notes.. So overall, the content was good but dont think it was worth the $$ and I dont think for less than a half an hour, I will spend that kind of money again on his shows

Awesome! Laughed til I cried, much needed laughs after a tough week.

We love Patton Oswalt. That being said, 3 days after the presidential election may not have been the right time to see him perform. 90% of his performance was politically inclined. Some of it was funny, some of it was not. It got to be too much. Really would have liked to hear some other jokes and stories. Would still go see him again though.

Loved the show!!! It was so funny. I liked how real he was. He didnt hold back and said how he felt

Show was ok. Patton seemed a little off his game compared to his typical performances. It is to be expected considering his personal issues, but at the same time when you are used to seeing him perform at a certain level and then see him refer to his one-sheeter throughout the set to keep him on track, and then closing with used material from older sets, it takes a little bit of professionalism out of the set. Having said, I would love to see him again, I just think it might take a little more time for him to get back on his feet with the personal side of his life before he's able to put forth an A-game set that he's capable of giving to his fans.

He is very funny and was unforgettable. Engaged with the crowd.

You can't ever go wrong going to see Patton! His new material is funny and genuine.

We bought tickets long ago before the election. He's a huge Hillary supporter/liberal and he wouldn't shut up about it. It was like watching a big baby on stage. Then when he finally switched gears to his own comedy, he was so distraught over the election he couldn't focus. He even said that himself! He wasn't funny either, his jokes were all about his kid or very awkward long stories about life after his wife's death to get to one punch line. It was a very disappointing show.

Oswalt made comedy gold out two tragedies: Trump's election and his wife's recent death. What i like about Oswalt's style is that it relies on a narrative structure--a connection of stories--rather than a series of mere jokes. I't like sitting around the campfire with a crazy funny friend listening to stories. I also like the emotional connections his comedy makes. Laughs, it seems, can come out of anger, joy, and pain. There is nothing banal about Oswalt's wit. It's side-splitting, which is still the most important thing; but beyond that, it's smart and heartfelt.

Patton put on a fantastic show, he covered the election extremely well, and his segment about his wife and daughter were very meaningful.

Seeing someone who is a master of the craft is aways impressive. Patton absolutely killed and is one of the best stand ups around.

Reminder to myself never see a ultra-liberal comedian after a conservative wins an election. Not funny at all. You would think Patton would have put his political beliefs aside and put on a comedy show but not the case. He was crushed by the election and we all suffered. I want my money back.
