Don Rickles Tickets—making the Front Row a Dangerous Place for More Than 50 Years

Don Rickles tickets are now available and can be bought or sold at Stubhub.com.

For more than half a century, Don Rickles has been a comedian who makes his audience double-over in laughter—and wince if he spots them from the stage. He’s a legend, a throwback to the entertainment days of the Rat Pack and the mob-run Strip in Las Vegas. His schtick? Going after his audience with razor-wire wit, often blurting things that in politically correct times fall far over the border of offensive. Race, size, looks—everything is fair game, and, as many comedians have noted, Rickles gets away with it. He often capitulates, reminding people it’s just a joke, but then launches right back into one of his famed attacks. The reason people don’t leave with hurt feelings is its all part of the humor—and Rickles is really, really funny. He makes people laugh at themselves and each other, and it’s impossible not to see the humor in what he says.

One of the toughest audiences he performed for was Frank Sinatra and his entourage. It was his first major break after spending a good long time paying his dues at strip joints and run down nightclubs. He poked fun at Sinatra and his well-known wild life: “The chamber maid? C’mon, Frank. C’mon. Why the chamber maid?â€

Ordinarily, this could be dangerous. But Sinatra laughed. At one point, Rickles turned to Sinatra’s number two, the guy who got him whatever he needed, and took care of people when they were bothering Old Blue Eyes: “It’s okay, you can laugh! Frank says you can laugh. He gives you permission.â€

The cheekiness of Rickles entertained numerous people throughout the entertainment industry, including Johnny Carson, on whose show he served as a guest regularly. In one notable episode, someone was sitting in for Carson. Rickles was there and accidentally smashed Carson’s cigar box—then put it back and no one said a word. When Carson realized it was broken on the next night, he had cameras follow him across the studio hall, where Rickles was filming his own show. He barged in while taping was in progress and confronted him.

Always outrageous and always hysterical, Don Rickles tickets are obligatory for anyone hoping to see a legend of comedy.

Who remembers? man who created energy using magnets on Johnny carson show?

My sister was telling me that she remembers a man on the Johnny Carson show over 25 years ago talking about making energy with magnets, but could not get a pattent for his idea, any one remember this and how to get infomation about his invention.

Joe Newmann was his name - made an engine that would supposedly generate more energy than it expended. Lots of folks have spent a lot of time since then debinking his theories.

Stand-up comedy a big deal to Mandel
Call it the ``Deal or No Deal'' syndrome. Ever since veteran comedian Howie Mandel began hosting that simplistic NBC game show - now syndicated daily across the country - a number of other stand-ups have followed suit.
