Comedian Nick Swardson Blames Alcohol, Edibles For Disastrous Stand-Up Performance
HuffPost
Fans accused the "Reno 911!" star of appearing "wasted" and "incoherent" when he took the stage in Colorado over the weekend.
Actor and comedian Nick Swardson says alcohol and edibles were to blame for a disastrous stand-up performance in Colorado over the weekend that ended with him being escorted off the stage.
Swardson, best known for his portrayal of Terry Bernadino on “Reno 911!,” responded Monday to tweets about the debacle on X.
“Just casually woke up on TMZ. Travel tip: don’t drink and take edibles in high altitude,” he wrote. “Fucking brain diarrhea. I’ll make it up to you Beaver Creek!”
Footage of the truncated performance Sunday at the Vilar Performing Arts Center in Beaver Creek shows Swardson pledging to “rally” before appearing to lose his train of thought repeatedly during a joke about actor Jason Statham.
In another clip, the audience erupts in a chorus of boos as Swardson’s microphone is turned off and he proceeds to exit the stage with a crew member.
