You dont get any better than Nick Swardson! He is my all time favorite. Besides being halarious, his attitude, how he handles idiots yelling in the crowd, how he tells a story is spot on. Id do anything, to hang out with him for a day! ??? Hope he comes back to Kansas City! Def will see him everytime he comes back!
Nick is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the 2nd time we saw Nick and he is the funniest we have seen. I will go see him every chance we get. We are going to see Dane Cook next month also for the 2nd time. He is funny but Nick is my favorite.
He was hilarious, my husband and I loved him. Would definitely see him again.
Swardson was great. From start to finish my buddies and I were consistently laughing out loud. I watched his new special the next day and it was completely new/different material with zero (or close to zero) overlap. I purposely waited to watch the new special bc I assumed it would ruin the live performance for me but it was completely different and equally good. Thanks for a fun and reasonably priced show.
Nick does a comedy act like we are all hanging out at a bar and he's telling hilarious stories.
What a great show! Nothing but good laughs! I will definitely be seeing him again next time he is in town
Nick Swardson absolutely slayed! Pretend Time is still one of the funniest shows ever to air on TV, and Swardson hasn’t missed a beat! We loved every minute of his act! Treat yourself….go see Nick Swardson!
This was a lot of storytelling but it was so fun and engaging. The seating at morongo is awful though.
