"I love Entenmann's - it's safe!" - Gabriel Iglesias

My family has always been a huge fan of Fluffy Guy comedian, Gabriel Iglesias.  For Christmas, I decided to surprise them with tickets to his comedy show, Gabriel Iglesias Presents Stand-Up Revolution, at Radio City Music Hall.  So, this Saturday we headed to the show, chocolate cake in hand (as everyone knows that’s Gabriel’s favorite cake!), and had the greatest time ever –  the laughs were non-stop!  After the show we waited outside the stage door in hopes of meeting Gabriel and the rest of his comedian friends: Martin Moreno, Shaun Latham, Alfred Robles, Wil Sylvince, and Rick Gutierrez – and that’s just what we did!

You can see my review of the Gabriel Iglesias Presents: Stand-Up Revolution show on TheCelebrityCafe.com.
