“Some nights you walk off stage and go 'That was a good crowd.'” — Ralphie May Quote

“Some nights you walk off stage and go 'That was a good crowd.'”

“I'm topical as hell. That's not going to change if I lose weight. There are a lot of comics that do 'fat jokes' better than I do - Louie Anderson, John Pinette, Gabriel Iglesias. These guys are phenomenal.”

“My average fan works for about $20 per hour, if they are lucky enough to have a job. And then factoring in insurance, taxes and such, they're maybe bringing home $15 per hour. If my tickets are just under $30, it took them about two hours of their life to make the money to come see my show. Why shouldn't I give them two hours too?”

“I'm working hard not only during training, but also studying English to talk to the crowd and respond by myself during interviews.”

“Our family was on the lunatic fringe. My mother was always completely irrepressible. My father made crowd noises into a microphone.”

“There's a lot of whiners in every crowd.”
