[Althetuna]

Well deserved. I've seen Chappell live twice and will see him again on his next tour.

A funny, funny dude.

How often is this given? If yearly way over due. Chappelle's show was amazing, and so were his Netflix specials

"Did you hear Dave **** himself?"
"Heard it on the news... died crying like a *****."

 

[AuH2O]

Love Chapelle. Guy has been doing funny stuff for a long time. Still has the guts to poke fun at everybody without going to the cheap shot, or just picking people because they are easy targets.

 

[CycloneRulzzz]

His take on Sesame Street back in the day was ****ing hilarious. Guy kills it with every special he does. I've also seen him perform live twice.

 

[IASTATE07]

I've been to all three shows he's had in Iowa. Chappelle absolutely kills it every time.

His new stuff isn’t funny though

 

[Doc]

It’s great he won the “Mark Twain Prize

If you were offended, he succeeded in his goal! I thought it was one of his best.

 

[Knownothing]

He is great. His last special was so solid. Going after the woke crowd and a lot of other stuff. Loved it.

I saw him when he did Veishea at the rec, then I saw him on NYE in LA last year with crazy surprise guest Stevie Wonder who performed a song from the audience when Dave asked him to.

gee it’s almost like you know nothing about his motivations.

oh wait.

I feel lied to and jealous that Dave was Veishea. When he was at the Val Air Ballroom he talked about he had never been to Iowa.

I think it was '99 but I'm not sure. Could have been any time from '98-'01 when I was there.

He killed. Easily the most entertaining school sanctioned event during my ISU years other than the back to back Big 12 champ basketball seasons.

Yeah it was '99. About 5 years before I got to Ames. That would have been awesome.

I haven’t even watched it...just being an *******.
