Renowned comedian and television personality Jeff Foxworthy brings his stand-up comedy tour to Reno’s Silver Legacy Casino for a two-performance night on Saturday, Oct. 1.

“Jeff Foxworthy is one of the most respected and successful comedians in the country. He is the largest-selling comedy recording artist in history, a multiple Grammy Award nominee and best-selling author of 11 books.

“Widely known for his redneck jokes, his act goes well beyond that to explore the humor in everyday family interactions and human nature, a style that has been compared to Mark Twain’s,” states Foxworthy’s online biography.

Marked by his “You might be a redneck if …,” jokes, Foxworthy was a member of the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, which included comedians Bill Engvall, Ron White and Larry the Cable Guy. The stand-up comedian is also known for his stints on “The Jeff Foxworthy Show” and “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?”

“Never in a million years would I ever have expected myself up on stage with people actually wanting to hear my jokes and what I have to say… I mean, all that ever got me growing up was a D- in conduct!

“I consider myself a regular guy and I do my best to live my life through the guidance of God, keeping my friends and family close, and treating people the right way,” states Foxworthy’s Facebook biography.

Saturday’s first performance begins at 6:30 p.m., with the second following at 9:30 p.m. Silver Legacy Resort & Casino is located at 407 N Virginia Street in Reno.

Tickets start at $52.75, plus tax and fees. For more information, visit http://www.ticketmaster.com.
