The Not So Super 8 Of Appleton, WI
I’m on the road. Like most comedians, I love it, I hate it, I can’t live without it…
This is my last stretch of college shows for the 2010-2011 school season. I’m all over Wisconsin this week and it’s cold and rainy. Here’s the deal with my college shows: 99% of the time, the school chooses and pays for my hotel. I have been put up in everything from scary truck stop motels in rural Pennsylvania where I thought I was going to be raped and murdered to five star hotels with Egyptian cotton sheets and town car pick up at the airport.

Last night, I was in Appleton. WI and the Fox Valley Technical College (where I had a fun show, btw) put me up in the local Super 8. I’ve stayed in more Super 8s than any human should have to endure in a lifetime and I can honestly say that there is no such thing as a great Super 8, but every once in a while, you can get a tolerable Super 8 if you are lucky enough to get one that is newly constructed. Other than that…forget it.
I thought I’d share a little bit more of my continued life of glamour on the road. Don’t be jealous…
