2009 Year In Review: Erick Lindgren Pwns Dane Cook


You know Norm, the only thing that would ruin this moment for me is having to sit through an entire Dane Cook performance...

You know Norm, the only thing that would ruin this moment for me is having to sit through an entire Dane Cook performance...

Continuing our look back at some of our favorite stories of 2009, we almost forgot about this one: Erick Lindgren absolutely pwning Dane Cook.

From a Feb 17th post (from a 2+2 thread):

Erick Lindgren and some friends went to a comedy show with Dane Cook as the headliner. Ten minutes into the Dane Cook set Lindgren et. al left the building because they didn’t really think that Dane Cook was funny. Dane from the stage, in a large building, says:

“Where the hell are you all going?!?”

“We’re leaving because your show sucks and you’re not funny,” responds Erick.

“Just walk back out that door to the unemployment line!”

“You know what? I am unemployed, have been for a long time, and make more money than you do. If I had my own Showtime special then I might even be funny too.”

We later talked to Erick and confirmed the details. He had planned to purchase a block of 100 tickets at a Dane Cook Las Vegas show a few months later, having a bunch of people get up and walk out, but the show conflicted with another event he was attending so it didn’t happen.

1. Dane Cook is not funny
2. dane cook makes way more money than Eric Lindgren
3. dane cook is again not funny but to be heckled 10 minutes into the show is a bit rude.

There is NO WAY….. NO WAY…. NO WAY Dane Cook makes more money than Eric Lindgren. Dude has a full stable of horses and is Full Tilt Partner (Which entitles him to more money than Dane Cook will ever be worth.)

that’s pretty much one of the awesomest things i’ve ever heard. fuck dane cook. he’s not funny. the only reason dane cook gets so many gigs and stupid movie vehicles is cus he’s a good looking comic. patton oswalt’s 1000000 times funnier than him. if he wasn’t a tiny troll he’d be getting boku bucks.
