What's the deal with seeing Jerry Seinfeld Live?

So Roe calls me up tonight and offers me a ticket to see the Jerry Seinfeld comedy show tonight for free. I being of a sane mind took him up on the offer. The tickets came courtesy of a young talented Mr. Mesh. They were decent seats, nothing I could complain about that's for darn sure.

I had a strong desire to see this show when it buzzed through Chattanooga last year and that desire was still strong this year, but the price of the tickets was just too high to warrant going. But free is definately in my price range.

He opened up with a guy names BLANK... Papa (I can't remember his first name). He was pretty good and got the crowd reved up for Jerry. The opening act guy did a lot of marriage and children humor which is good and can relate for the most part.

Then the Maestro came out. The current King of Comedy, Jerry "My Television Friend" Seinfeld. He had some hilarious bits, some decent bits, and some that I thought were just ok. But for the most part I was dying the whole time. My personal favorite was his bit on Terrorism. He basically made fun of Jihadist Terrorists and how blowing themselves up is pretty stupid, especially when they screw up and blow up themselves and no one else. Though some could say this is pretty ill-timed due to today's transdoings, I think it made light of how seriously stupid Islamic Jihadists are with their suicide bombings. He likened them to modern day Wyle Coyote's, strapping giant explosives to their backs in the hopes of killing the road runner but missing the road runner and blowing themself up in the process... well ok explaining the joke doesn't do it justice and really doesn't convey the humor at all, but trust me their was humor and laughing.

He also has some new insight into marriage now that he's married, and has some insight into kids.

What's great is he comes across as so casual and down to earth that you feel like he's just hangin out with you. You feel like its him, whoever you came to the show with and yourself and you're just sitting back crackin jokes. It was a great time and I'm so glad i got the experience.
