Main Floor Seating with VIP Package Hailed as “the new Mr. Las Vegas” and “the Godfather of Comedy,” George Wallace is no stranger to Las Vegas or comedy. As a headliner at the Flamingo since 2004, Vegas loves Wallace – and vice versa – so much, that his contract was extended indefinitely. And now, everyone can catch Mr. Wallace performing his unique brand of humor inspired by everyday life night after night in the Flamingo showroom. Wallace, who is on the Comedy Central’s list of the 100 Greatest Standups of All Time, started out in the joke business as a frequent comedy club standup in New York City, where he lived with close friend Jerry Seinfeld. In 1978, he moved to the West Coast and caught his big break when he was asked to be a writer for The Red Foxx Show. After a year as a writer, Wallace returned to the stage, touring all over the country and becoming a regular at the Comedy Store. He was named the Funniest Male Standup during the American Comedy Awards in 1995, and since then, he has appeared in numerous television shows such as Scrubs, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Hollywood Squares, and The Oprah Winfrey Show, as well as several films, including Mr. Deeds, Batman Forever, and The Ladykillers.
In his show at the Flamingo, Wallace works the audience as he comments on media, relationships, and dialogue clichés. The crowd loves his famous “Yo Mama” and “I Be Thinkin” jokes, as well as his “People Say Stupid Things” bit, in which Wallace points out the stupidity of many popular phrases. Known as one of the few comics who can revitalize any audience, he also hands out prizes to audience members at every show, including CDs, DVDs, designer purses, dinners at famous Las Vegas restaurants, and more. Wallace also loves meeting his fans, taking photographs and giving autographs after every show. You’ll want to get on line for one too, with the energy and charisma emanating from this very funny Vegas performer. *Buffet option is not valid during the George Wallace show; valid for breakfast, lunch or dinner at the hotel buffet 7 days before show date through 7 days after show date. |
