      It's a bummer that Mitch never got to do a set with ten million of himself in the crowd. He would be the perfect audience for himself.
      EDIT: Actually ten million is probably too many. A few thousand Mitch Hedbergs. There, that's the right amount.

      @@gadvait2010 So what Mitch is saying is that if he doesn't do well, the management will make him clean the club. That makes us think that he's gonna work extra hard make everyone laugh. Instead, he says they were good because they were "neat" which means he didn't have to clean up as much. In other words, he's pretty much saying, in his own self deprecating way, that the crowd was not going to laugh either way so because they were neat, it made his job easier to clean up after them. They crowd was good because they were neat...not because they laughed more, which is what we would expect him to say. It was really a subtle way to give his joke a little extra kick at the end 😁

But it's true that a lot of comedians really liked Mitch Hedberg. I guess it's a personal preference thing. I'm not a huge fan of one-liners. That said, he's one of the best at that format.

    Great to see Ralphie May in the audience laughing and having a good time. Ralphie was a helluva funny comedian as well. RIP Ralphie. You are missed.

    One of a kind. I’ll always miss Hedberg and Carlin.

    Never saw this one before. That was before I saw it. Now I have seen it after. Thanks for uploading before it was after.

      That reminds me of a joke, but I wont tell it because then you already know the joke.

    It doesn't matter how many times I hear him repeat the same lines, they still make me laugh my ass off, his "Rice" joke gets me EVERY TIME. Its a damn shame he passed away.

    You know, for a one liner comedian, he sure had a lot of two and three line jokes.

    Comedy is taking something from every day life and making it funny. Mitch was a master at that
