RIP this one hits me a little bit and I am not going to pretend he was my favorite comedian of all-time or pretend that he was the GOAT now that he passed away but he was funny...The reason this one hits me is because a few years ago through a friend we got front row seats to see him when he came to the local Casino. Good show, I started following him on twitter after that and even interacted with him one time on there about his show I saw. But he was a very humble down to earth dude who always showed love to Buffalo on twitter(I think he even gave us a shoutout on there within the past week or two),gave good interviews every time he was on the Shred and Ragan show, and always had good outlooks on what was going on in the world. Very sad to hear about this because he just seemed like a good dude and someone whose thoughts I came across on a fairly regular basis from following on Twitter. Way too young.

I'm pretty upset I never got to see him live

 

Like you, not my favorite or a legend ... but just a damn funny dude. Hope he's making people laugh in heaven

Yeah although not a legend, guy did a two hour set and had some pretty funny bits and certainly wasn't afraid to cross any boundaries. I always said I would've seen him live again if the opportunity came around

Shame. RIP Ralphie... Last comedian I saw live was Gabriel Iglesias

When he was in Albany for a show (sadly, I did not go), he did an interview on PYX 106 (local classic rock station). He told the funniest story about getting weed from Snoop, then forgetting to take it out of his luggage before heading to another country (maybe Jamaica).

 

He said when he landed at the airport, there were police and drug dogs all over. Said he loved dogs, so he was going up to them, petting them, etc.

 

When he had his bags searched, the weed was discovered.

 

He was facing arrest and subsequent time. He told them he had no idea that the weed was in his luggage.

 

Long story, short ... the police reviewed the tapes and decided that - had he known he had all that weed, there's no way he would have gone TO the dogs.

 

Ended up with a payoff to let him go, which the cops undoubtedly pocketed.

 

Was a great story and had me in stitches as he told it.

 

RIP. Way too young.
