Louie Anderson Opens Las Vegas Comedy Show at Palace Station

Las Vegas Comedy Show, Louie Anderson LOL

LOL with Louie

I was here all day looking for my name – Louie

OPENING NIGHT OF the Louie Anderson Theater saw Louie at his best. Hilarious, hospitable and humble, Louie played to a packed house last night in his new showroom at Palace Station’s Las Vegas comedy club. Here are some punch-line highlights and pictures from the big opening night:

We all want to win a million dollars so we can make that call, “I’m not coming in today.”
I like blackjack because you don’t have to know how to play. Just sit in between two people and they’ll tell you.
I’m lazy. I’m not going to stand and lose money. Once they get lay-down craps…I’m there.
If I could spin this show would be another 30 bucks…Cirque du Louie.
When you see a box with handles, pick it up – wisdom from dad
I’m on the patch now. I’m up to three and half patches a day.
They have a new patch for diets. You put it right over your mouth.
I’m trying to be healthy. I go to anytime fitness sometimes.

LAS VEGAS COMEDY: Louie Anderson LOL Opens Sept. 7 at Palace Station

Louie works the room of media members at the new Louie Anderson Theater at Palace Station.

STANDING ON STAGE in the room at Palace Station that will soon brandish his name, Louie Anderson tells members of the media that he’s getting old and that at this phase of his career he has accomplished everything that he ever wanted when he began in comedy some three decades ago.

“I thought 50 was just a number. Fifty is a condition,” he said.

Don’t be fooled.

Louie, now 57, is better than ever. He recalls, to the day (November 21, 1984), when he was performing with the likes of Jim Carrey, Andrew “Dice” Clay and Bob Saget at the Comedy Store at the Dunes Hotel in Las Vegas.

Louie, with more than 30 years in the biz, still incessantly tests new material, perfecting his act that will open at the new Louie Anderson Theater at Palace Station on September 7. “After 31 years of stand-up comedy, I’m happy to say I have never been better on stage,” he said.

Louie is our new headliner at the new Louie Anderson Theater. His show, officially titled Louis Anderson LOL presented by Bonkerz Comedy Productions, opens September 7 at 8:30pm. Louie will perform nightly Tuesday – Saturday at 8:30pm. He has already invited big-name guests to perform at his theater, name-dropping Roseanne Barr, Arsenio Hall and Carrey as possible future “announced and unannounced” guests.

Here are a few more zingers from Louie’s media day, followed by Louie’s appearance on the Craig Ferguson show, plugging his big opening at Palace Station.

That’s how you judge life, by the food spread they put out for you. I remember my first opening… bread sticks.

I like when they put lights on it so you can find your way to the food.

Should I have a theater named after me? Why not?

I am user-friendly. I’m the new Apple product. I’m the new lumpy iPad. I’m the iPaddle.
