Laughing for six hours
This seems like a really, really long time but I bet it was pretty incredible:
Chappelle kept telling jokes until 4:43 the next morning— making his entire set a whopping six hours and seven minutes.
That’s the longest performance by any comedian in the the 28-year history of the Laugh Factory, according to founder Jamie Masada.
Amazingly, the previous record was established just a few days earlier. On April 10, Dane Cook performed his own marathon act, appearing on stage for three hours and fifty minutes.
“It was just one of those nights,” Masada said of Chappelle’s appearance. “He had everyone laughing for six hours.”
Indeed, Masada said only about a dozen of the 150-plus original members of the audience left the club before Chappelle wrapped his set. “The audience was with him 100 percent,” he said.
Chappelle didn’t take any bathroom breaks. And Laugh Factory staff stopped serving alcohol around midnight, Masada said.
Dave Chappelle telling jokes for 6+ hours? Thats got to be a good time. Now come back and do your show again. Oh, and anyone who sticks around to listen to Dane Cook for nearly four hours is a loser.
Holla at me
