Dave Chappelle was at the Stevens Center in Winston Salem tonight. $52 was a little pricey when you include beer and shots at a bar across the street, beforehand. Had a great time though. He's incredible at was he does and a favorite for many my age (mid 20's). He will also be in Ral, Clt, and SC this week. He's still funny as poo. Welcome back Dave!

I think he's been doing stand-up again for a while?  Glad he's out there doing some more work though.

Yeah, he has been doing standup for awhile and actually I am not sure he ever really stopped for long. Mostly smaller impromtu shows so no one really hears about them. Think he has 3 shows this weekend in CLT.

 

I was going to go but I have heard that a lot of his recent shows have been fairly bad. A friend of mine has seen him 10 times and he said the last two times have been really bad and last year he actually walked out because he couldn't take it anymore. This guy is a huge Chapelle fan but said Dave had absolutely no material and just kind of talked and there was lots of awkward silence. Said if it wasn't for some hecklers out in the crowd there would have been no material at all. Good to hear the OP thought it was good and hopefully this go around is good for Dave,.

He's done a few shows here and there over the last few years.  He made comments like "I'm starting at the bottom again" and " I'm making my comeback".   He is now getting back on the road, which is a great thing.  He mentioned doing shows in the smaller cities because of the hospitality.  Either way, I was proud to have him here.

      Favorite Packer Panthers memory

      Really? Wow. Sorry. Got my timeline messed up. I remember someone claiming to be Graham’s mom on the old Charlotte.com board so I guess it was a long time ago that he was here. I guess I thought he was after Kasay.

      Nick Scott may be doing better than thought.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Nick Scott has gotten his share of Huddle hate, but I came across this SI article by Zach Roberts when I was researching recently released Quandre Diggs, speculated to be a better option  (https://lastwordonsports.com/nfl/2025/11/07/breaking-titans-cut-former-three-time-pro-bowler-quandre-diggs-4-destinations-ranked/3/), but getting back to Nick Scott... Now to be fair, the observation on Scott was before the Packers game, but the stats couldn't have changed that much, and may have gotten better.   "At some point during virtually every Carolina Panthers game, you have probably found yourself grumbling about Nick Scott. The much-maligned safety has seemingly been out of position a lot or has failed to make a play. The eye test has often let him down. "But that's why stats are so helpful. Sometimes, the eye test, especially for fans, is unreliable. On occasion, advanced metrics help make sense of things and lend more clarity. In the case of Scott, they make him look like a much better safety than any of us would've guessed. "In coverage, Scott has given up just 15 yards and an average of five yards per catch. That's the lowest among safeties, leading superstars like Julian Love, Talanoa Hafunga, Quandre Diggs, Kerby Joseph, Kyle Hamilton, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. "In FI%, the safety leads all his counterparts once again at 40%. Brian Branch, Camren Kinchens, and Xavier McKinney are some notable names he leads. He's been pretty excellent in pass coverage, which is crucial for the Panthers." For those wondering, "FI" means forced incompletions. Now I'm way past trying to figure out why X links aren't embedding for me like they used to, but here you go: https://x.com/dacornerman/status/1981363757608513632?t=rx_5iLjp8_y5huNcg_y1nA&s=19   Suffice it to say that Scott may not be as bad as some have led on.    https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/onsi/news/much-maligned-panthers-db-way-better-than-think
