BET’s Comic View comics coming to UTM for Homecoming comedy series


The Student Activities Council has always shown students a great time with their comedy series.

This time they are going to bring down the house with laughter. On October 2nd at a little after 9pm in the Watkins Auditorium, some of the hottest comics from BET’s Comic View will be visiting our campus.

Pat Brown also featured on BET’s The Way We Do It, will open the show and introduce none other than Damon Williams. William’s numerous television appearances include BET's Comic View annually since '94 including his own one hour special. He's been featured on BET LIVE and most recently hosted several episodes of the legendary Showtime at the Apollo formerly hosted by TV star Steve Harvey.

In 1999 Damon performed for over 300,000 fans as the opening act for the highly successful Kings of Comedy Tour establishing him as one of the elite comics in the nation.

Also performing that night will be Nard Holston. Holston is a regular on BET’s Comic View and was recently featured in TI’s music video for the song 24’s.

Some of you might also recognize the last guest for the night, Prescott from K97’s Early Morning Show in Memphis, who is sure to keep you rolling.

This evening is going to bring a lot of laughter into a homecoming week filled with fun competitions. So make sure not to miss this once in a lifetime opportunity of comics coming together.
