Why see Jim Gaffigan?

Barely Alive Tour

As a stand-up comedian, Gaffigan's clever, quiet, and family-friendly style has earned him a a rapid rise through the comedy ranks, and he now stands as one of the country's most popular comedians. His eponymous sitcom on TV Land, which sadly isn't coming back for a third season, broadened his appeal still further, to such an extent that he was picked by KFC to replace Norm McDonald as Colonel Sanders in their TV ads.

One of only 10 comedians to ever sell out Madison Square Garden, he's a New York Times bestseller and a Grammy nominee, as well as a father of five (phew).
