Comedian Dave Chappelle, who recently returned to stand-up on a comeback tour, was on stage in Hartford, Conn., Thursday night when he was apparently heckled by a large audience and walked off.
“I forgive some of you, but I don’t forgive all of you. You guys have totally ruined by chances of running for Congress or something,” the comedian said before allegedlyflipping off the noisy crowd and walking off to a Kanye West track.
Chappelle is headlining the 15-city tour of the Funny or Die Oddball Festival.
Members of the audience immediately took to social media claiming the comedian “bombed” and suffered a “meltdown.” Others blamed the “obnoxious” crowd for preventing the show from continuing.
Hartford Police said extra patrols were called in as a precaution and for potential crowd control after some fans became very upset and demanded their money back.
There is nothing on earth worse than going to a comedy show where the audience sucks. Where every drunken asshole thinks that being in the crowd is some kind of tryout where maybe if I say something funny they'll just kick the comedian offstage and I'll get to talk. Newsflash, unless your name is Richard Pryor's ghost you're probably not funnier than Dave Chappelle.
Shit like this though is why Chappelle should get his own TV show though. When he gets in front of crowds all people want to hear is stuff from Chappelle's show. Say Charlie Murphy! Reenact the entire player hater's ball!
If Chappelle went back on TV he might be able to tell some of the jokes he wants to tell without dealing with hardos from Hartford, CT...let me say that again, Hartford, CT....ruining his show.
Public Service Announcement: The next time you're at a comedy show and someone in the crowd is heckling the comedian and ruining the show, just kick that person in the dick as hard as you can. Not only is it allowed, but you'll probably get a standing ovation.
