Pit Bull of Comedy is sure to offend everyone

Everyone loves a good laugh, and it’s even better when it’s a dirty laugh. Bobby Slayton… Everyone loves a good laugh, and it’s even better when it’s a dirty laugh. Bobby Slayton has been dubbed as “The Pit Bull of Comedy,” and is notorious for his filthy sense of humor.

Slayton has been doing standup for 25 years and has been heralded as extremely energetic and one of the best known on the road. Slayton is touring in support of his upcoming comedy CD, Raging Bully. The one-hour live disc will contain topics such as the death penalty, romance, porn and even sexism.

Slayton has even been in films; he starred opposite Bruce Willis and Billy Bob Thornton in the film “Bandits.” Also, he was in the David Spade movie released this year, “Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star.” He’s had minor roles in “The Rat Pack,” “Loser,” “Get Shorty,” “Ed Wood” and “Wayne’s World 2.”

Besides his film career, Slayton has a HBO series called “The Mind of a Married Man,” which airs on Sunday nights at 10:30 p.m. Slayton has been on television talk shows such as “Later!,” “The Tonight Show” and “Politically Incorrect.” His radio career also has A-List shows such as “The Howard Stern Show,” “Tom Leykis” and the “Kevin ‘ Bean Morning Show.” This is quite an ambitious man when it comes to comedy.

Slayton has also won the American Comedy Awards’ “Funniest Male Stand-Up Comic of the Year.” In any case, it should be a memorable night full of laughs and gags at the theater this weekend.

Bobby Slayton will perform at the Improv in Homestead tonight at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., tomorrow at 7 p.m., 9 p.m. and 11 p.m., and Sunday, Nov. 16, at 7 p.m. Tickets are $18-$20. For more information, call (412) 462-5233.
