Stand-up for Leno

Ask a late-night couch potato what it means to Jaywalk. If they watch Letterman they’ll give you a boring answer about crossing the street at the appropriate time and intersection. But Leno-philes will tell you that it’s the moment in your life when you completely forget who lives at the...

Ask a late-night couch potato what it means to Jaywalk. If they watch Letterman they’ll give you a boring answer about crossing the street at the appropriate time and intersection. But Leno-philes will tell you that it’s the moment in your life when you completely forget who lives at the Vatican. Or what color the White House is. Late-night’s chin-tastic king has folks boning up on their Trivial Pursuit when preparing for a trip that might land them in Jaywalk’s path. Lucky for us, we’re not in the path of Jay Leno’s cheeky foray into the intelligence of average Americans. Um, usually.

Tuesday, Leno will hit the stage for a night of stand-up that will include more than a few jokes about scandalicious politicians, baby factory Brangelina, and his new ten o’clock timeslot.

The yucks will flow at 8 p.m. at Seminole Hard Rock, 1 Seminole Way, Hollywood. Tickets start at $50. Call 305-350-5885, or visit ticketmaster.com.
Tue., Dec. 30, 8 p.m., 2008
