Missed out on Tracy Morgan tickets? Still need your 30 Rock fix? Judah Friedlander is coming to Northwestern on Feb. 27, courtesy of Norris Center’s Campus Programming. Tickets go on sale Feb. 8 at the Norris Box Office and online.
Friedlander is an actor and comedian best known for his role as Frank Rossitano on 30 Rock. He’s also made appearances in American Splendor, Zoolander and Meet the Parents. Clad in his trademark oversized glasses and trucker hat, Friedlander is sure to bring lots of laughs to Northwestern — with a show titled “The World Champion Comes to You,” he’s sure to make eccentric professions of greatness.
According to Friedlander’s website, “Get ready for 2010 because the world champion is coming at you.” For a sample of his humor, the following excerpt has been teased on the main page:
“Here I am running through Times Square in a blizzard. I don’t need to wear the gloves and scarf. I just did it to set an example for you. After about 10 minutes of running, I melted all the snow in Times Square. I just give off too much body heat for nature to handle. The snowplow workers appreciate my help. And all the chicks got turned on watching me train.”
Here’s a couple videos to get you pumped for the show:
