Dave Chappelle pissed on missed his opportunity to hold Hollywood's Comedy Endurance record by walking off stage 5 hours into his performance to go to the bathroom causing him to be disqualified, said club owner Jamie Masada.
The audience wasn't happy, Masada said, but he insisted that rules are rules where endurance comedy is concerned.
“There are only two rules,” Masada said Tuesday. “You have to continuously tell jokes that are funny and you can't leave the stage, even to go to the bathroom.”
The late Richard Pryor set the original record of two hours and 41 minutes in 1980. Dane Cook broke it 27 years later with a three-hour, 50-minute set. Chappelle raised the bar to six hours and seven minutes before Cook took it back with a seven-hour, 34-minute marathon performance in 2008. source: AP
