Just bought tickets to Tom Green in September. No idea if his standup is any good but I love Freddy Got Fingered so much that I don’t care

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Was it real or a plant?
I've seen this happen twice at stand-up shows and I'm pretty sure they were both set-ups to get the crowd riled-up.

We don't need to forget. But we can allow him to tell jokes in public for money again, I think
