SALAMANCA – Comedian Ron White brings his “Blue Collar” style of comedy to the Seneca Allegany Casino Saturday, April 6 for the second time in as many years.
The cigar and Black Grouse scotch-toting comic visited the casino April 9, 2011, returning for a crowd that sold out more than a month in advance.
After his big break joining the Blue Collar Comedy Tour in 2000, White toured with Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall and Larry the Cable Guy for more than three years. White bowed out of the group after three specials before the three remaining members launched The WB series Blue Collar TV.
White himself boasts four solo video releases: 2004’s They Call Me Tater Salad, 2006’s You Can’t Fix Stupid, 2009’s Behavioral Problems and 2012’s A Little Unprofessional.
On ‘Unprofessional,’ released in September, White joined an increasingly trending group of comics including Louis C.K., Jim Gaffigan and Aziz Ansari by releasing his own special online. For $5, fans can download the video without Digital Rights Management (DRM) protection on RonWhiteSpecial.com. A $10 download package includes ‘Unprofessional,’ White’s Salute the Troops special and two songs by White’s wife, singer-songwriter Margo Rey.
