Current mood:  sassy
During my first show at Laughs in Kirkland, WA on Friday night, somebody from the audience went into the green-room where I was keeping my belongings, and they stole my wallet. They then went to Safeway and bought groceries and filled their vehicle with gas using my credit card...while I was on stage.
This has to be my biggest fan ever! Imagine someone being so into my comedy that they just had to get their hands on something of mine as a memento of seeing me perform. As if that wallet was not enough, they then had to purchase some Chris Fairbanks commemorative gasoline and groceries to further celebrate having seen me. It must have been hard for them to have left the show early to do all this, but they must have just been that excited.
What can I say, it feels good to be getting all famous like this.

That sucks. Hard.


But I like your humorous take on it!

I would have bought beer, clown porn, or some groucho marx glasses. There is something so not funny about gas and groceries. People - if you must steal from comedians you should give them something to work with.

That's nothing, I've had my wallet stolen 3 times! It's hard to be popular.

That is just ridiculous. Who would think to do that?? Maybe it was an employee that got off early. Or maybe they see shows and do this often.


I guess this is a good lesson: bring the wallet on stage from now on...

Guess it never pays to be popular.

At least he didn't buy tickets to someone else's comedy show. That would have really sucked.
