Win Tickets: Two Evenings Of Stand Up Comedy @ Brody Theater | "Porseattland"
January 6, 2011 — PDXPIPELINEThe Helium Comedy club is so hot right now that Kevin Hart's shows this weekend are pretty much sold out (Can still get Ben Bailey of Cash Cab next weekend!). If you don't have tickets for Helium, you can get your comedy fix at the Brody Theater with lots of local comedians including Ian Karmel. Ian has been a guest on the Comcast Sports Blazers after-show, Talkin' Ball, and been killing it.
We have a pair of tickets to give away for each night. To win, comment on this post why you would like to attend (IMPORTANT – comment WHICH NIGHT as well – Friday/Saturday). Winners will be drawn/emailed on Friday.
From press release (Poster of Friday show):
Fly Ass Jokes presents: Porseattland, an evening of stand-up comedy from the Pacific Northwest

I would love to win tickets for Friday! I love stand up so much:) I am a theatre minor at oregon! This would be so awesome!
xx!

oh my gosh! I hope I win. My husband and I have two little ones at home (2 and 3 years old) that have kept us busy night and day since they were born. It is an exhausting life for parents with a young family–on a budget, mind you. With the cost of the babysitter combined with the cost of a date night, the idea of going out is hard to swallow these days. Tickets to this show would be a wonderful, inexpensive, treat for us.

January 6, 2011 at 15:54
Ian Karmel sounds like candy.
My son’s an Ian and he is dandy.
I heard Mike Drucker
was once a trucker,
And that Ron Funches
does his crunches.
Barbara Holm and John McKay,
I’d like to come on Saturday!

Lori left a nice poem…I haven’t got the creative capacity for that tonight but my name is similar to hers. So I’m just as cool by association. Tickets for either night, but preferably Saturday, would be sweet!!
January 6, 2011 at 16:43
PDX Pipeline Rules! And So does Helium Comedy Club! Please Pick ME!!!! To win tickets to On Firday, though Saturday also works!
As Kevin Hart puts it on his t shirts “Say it wit ya chest”
January 6, 2011 at 16:48
I haven’t been to see a stand-up comic in almost 20 years! It would be great to go on either of the nights (Friday or Saturday). Sounds like a great night out…
January 6, 2011 at 16:48
I have a sober friend in town and we need something to laugh about on my birthday weekend!
January 6, 2011 at 16:49
Saturday night.
January 6, 2011 at 16:49
I ain’t laughin… yet. Make it right. On the 8th!
January 6, 2011 at 16:52
I would LOVE to attend Saturday!
January 6, 2011 at 16:59
I’ve got a busy week of tests and this would be the PERFECT WAY to unwind!
January 6, 2011 at 17:00
Still trying to cheer up my buddy who’s girlfriend dumped him. A couple of tickets for Friday would be real nice. Thanks
January 6, 2011 at 17:08
I want to go Friday because I work right by the Brody Theater but have never actually been inside!
January 6, 2011 at 17:19
WOW! This lineup looks gut-bustingingly fun! Would love to see all this talent!
January 6, 2011 at 17:55
friday would be best as saturday is for lemon curd making.
January 6, 2011 at 18:00
Quite simply, because that’s the way I like to roll on a Saturday night.
January 6, 2011 at 19:02
I would loooove to attend either night, but especially Friday since I just started taking a dreaded Friday night class while others are kicking off their weekend. Not to mention my husband would love to see a new venue for comedy. :)
January 6, 2011 at 20:32
Luv 2 Laff!
January 6, 2011 at 20:49
I have been practicing my heckling routine and I reckon that Friday night would be the perfect night to test it out.
January 6, 2011 at 21:30
I’ve been wanting to get into the Helium club and some good comedy would be very welcome after the first week back to classes.
January 6, 2011 at 21:41
Because no one wants to make an effort to win tickets except to fill out a form, I’ve got strep throat and a broken foot during the first week of college. Give me something to smile about
January 6, 2011 at 22:38
I would love to win tickets because it’s date night for my boyfriend and I, we’ve been having a really tough time lately because we work day jobs then try to cram our photography and relationship and life in the cracks. Stress, work, us having literally polar opposite schedules means date night is mega important. Please give us some laughs for our date night. We need it!
January 6, 2011 at 22:39
Friday night please!
January 6, 2011 at 23:42
Our new year’s promise is to spend one on one couple nights together…please? 10 pm is good!
January 7, 2011 at 00:50
Comedy ROCKS!!!
And I would love Sat. night off with my hubby<3
thx ;)xoxoP
January 7, 2011 at 07:18
I have wanted to go with my husband to a stand-up comedy night for a long time. I had tickets for a show a month ago, but I got the flu so we had to pass it up. I would love to win tickets to be able to attend the Saturday night stand-up!
Thanks for the chance to win.
January 7, 2011 at 07:43
If the Helium Club is so hot, then that’s the place I need to be cuz it’s damned cold out here in East County!
January 7, 2011 at 08:10
It was a dark and stormy night, there was bad news on the telly and worse news everywhere in the making, the only thing that kept her from popping Prozac like Pez was the tiny ray of hope coming from a pair of standup comedy tickets that could possibly come her way and ward off the shadowy demons that threatened her very existence; at least for this one night.
January 7, 2011 at 08:11
Saturday preferably
January 7, 2011 at 08:24
We’re how many months into Portland’s grey grey winter…. comedy please!
January 7, 2011 at 09:09
I would love to attend this event. I can go either night and only need one lonely ticket.
January 7, 2011 at 10:15
I love, love, love standup comedy and would love to win a pair of tix to this event… :)
January 7, 2011 at 10:16
Sorry…I forgot to mention for the Sat. show at 8! Thnks!
January 7, 2011 at 10:16
i could really use a good laugh, plz.
January 7, 2011 at 10:50
I’m always down to check out local comedians. Will be my first time checking out venue as well.
January 7, 2011 at 11:02
que el amor de una noche para el show sobada!
January 7, 2011 at 12:11
It’s been forever since I’ve seen a good comedy show and after a crap week I made reservations to the Saturday 8pm show for two. Free would pair well with the night.
January 7, 2011 at 13:49
A Haiku for consideration:
Divorce is final
She took me to the cleaners
I need a good laugh
Portland has the BEST comedy scene around and this would certainly be the best way for me to “celebrate” my new life. Saturday Nite would be AWESOME. Thanks for your consideration for tickets.

Would love to win tix for Friday.
I really wanted to see Corey Spencer too. Isn’t she still on the ticket for tonight?
January 7, 2011 at 16:58
Ron Funches does crunches?!?
Have you ever seen Ron. OMG too funny.
January 7, 2011 at 17:00
Amy Schumer and him didn’t hit it off, huh?
January 7, 2011 at 17:04
Then suddenly a knock on the door…
It wasn’t, couldn’t, possibly be him could it?!
She had to look, but was afraid to….(to be continued)
January 8, 2011 at 09:51
Hey, thanks so much for picking my name for the comedy show tonight. I am thrilled and so excited to have a date night with my husband! PDX pipeline rocks!
