Okay, it was an arm wrestling match, but still.
It counts dammnit. It was at the New City Comedy Olympics. I was the heel and called it all, and I was pretty happy with the way it turned out--Neil Rhodes shooting a pin on himself during the heat segment notwithstanding.
It was fun to be the bad guy. I called the fans idiots, stalled on the lock-up, cheated, and got booed and everything.
New City is a fun room. Each show is a theme, so there's always a fresh challenge and an opportunity to explore something new.
The other reason I like the room is the crowds are a little more on the fringe, which means my pro-feminism, gay-is-interesting-not-scary stuff gets a nice welcome (as do any Lord of the Rings or Spider-Man references). Most rooms, the audience laughs because their perspective is being challenged. In New City, they laugh because they can RELATE.
It's a good feeling.
