Why see Jim Gaffigan?
The Quality Time 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 be 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).
His latest tour, the Quality Time tour, delves into many of Jim's favorite topics, from family life to his Catholicism, to battles with various food stuffs (hot pockets beware!).

Fun for All-Jim Gaffigan
Next time Jim Gaffigan is in Cleveland, pack up the family-your mother in law included- to see a mostly family friendly comedy event. Jim Gaffigan's comedy does not depend on swear words, scatological humor or graphic sexual situations to get laughs. His humor centers on the shared experiences of family, marriage and observations we all share but would be hesitant to say out loud. He is an every man trying to make sense of the foibles of everyday life. His self deprecating style makes him easy to relate to.
The show was held at the Wolstein Ctr. just a tad smaller than the Rocket Field House. We sat in the handicapped seats which had a great view of the stage.
The opening act was a comic, named Ted Alexandro, He was very funny and , again, his material was clean. A great matched set! ... Read more

Head hurts from laughing so much
If you are going to the show because you like his comedy you will not be disappointed. His warm up guy was very funny also. Jokes kept coming, his ability to segue way from one topic to another is amazing. ... Read more

Funny as ever
We saw Jim Gaffigan at the Paramount theater tonight, 4/13/24 at the 8 pm show and found him to be as funny as ever. He's lost some weight, as he will share but he's the same Jim we all love. Paramount needs to update their crowded small seats, but it didn't distract from the show! ... Read more
