So, this’ll be pretty different.
First of all, JokeSlam takes place at Cafe Cocomo, which is a salsa club way over in a secluded corner of the Dogpatch, and how often do you find yourself at a place like that on a Friday night?
Second of all, look at this poster art. How often do you find yourself at a thing with poster art like this?
Third of all, it combines pro-wrestling and stand-up comedy. What more can be said?

California’s Referee Of The Year Sparky Ballard will be overseeing the action, and the voice of Juggalo Championship Wrestling Kevin Gill will be recording the play by play commentary.
Comedy Headliner Frankie Quinones is no stranger to tearing down packed houses as a Headliner in California, or as the opening act for the legendary Paul Rodriguez around this great nation of ours. He’s entertained the troops overseas, and while a life long fan of the “Sport Of Kings” Frankie has yet to peform a standup set in a wrestling ring but that will change on Friday Night March 11th when Frankie steps in the ring to perform a blistering set of stand up comedy. He’ll be joined by San Francisco standout comedians Chris Storin & Dash Kwiatkowski, and by seasoned Comedian/Host Jabari Davis. This will be a night to remember for performers and audience alike.
