Comedian’s show involves students

A packed Seventh Street Underground was given a treat after comedian Josh Sneed unleashed a stand-up routine that caused a roar of hysteria.

Sneed entertained the rowdy crowd at 1 a.m. Saturday with his views on life and everyday occurences.

“I get my ideas from everyday life,” Sneed said. “While I’m in the car, shower or just lying in bed, I get ideas.

“All of my jokes are an extension of the truth, but exaggerated to make you laugh.”

Sneed joked about “white trash” and his club experience in Minnesota.

“I picture two rednecks sitting on the roof of a barn playing truth or dare,” Sneed said when joking about the first person to ever drink milk. “There is less white trash behind a dumpster than at a flea market.”

His performance also included a joke about rap music and how it affects children.Sneed said he caught his 4-year-old cousin screaming at his Easter basket.

When the boy was questioned about his screaming he said: “I’m just giving a shout out to all my peeps.”

Sophomore elementary education major Maria Santoyo said, “He was incredibly hilarious and I love the peeps joke.”

Sneed called four audience members up to compete in a joke contest.The jokes were not welcomed by the crowd and most weren’t laughed at.

Sneed said the packed venue was a treat to him because people could have been other places, such as parties at the late hour.

Sneed tours large and small schools in his college tour. Last year he toured 50 weeks to colleges and clubs. More information about Sneed can be found on his Web site at joshsneed.com.
