Trailer Trash Comes to Town

Last night's entertainment involved seeing the infamous trailer park supervisor duo from “Trailer Park Boys” live at the local casino.



Anyone who's seen Trailer Park Boys knows of Randy and Lahey. On the show they're pretty funny, but live and in person, they're hilarious! I was discussing what we might see them do on stage with a friend, and we both admitted to being trepidacious about the performance. They're two characters from a mockumentary style television show after all, how funny can they be?


As it turns out they're pretty hysterical. It was a little like prop comedy on crack. They kept the self-referential jokes to a minimum, and other than a few running gags and famous line-drops, they really managed to separate themselves from the television show as best they could.



One of the best gags they did was when they pulled joints out from a waitresses bra, and proceeded to market their indoor smoking hoods so you could enjoy smoking dope inside the casino.



Anyway, after the show I got to meet Mr. Lahey and Randy where Lahey proceeded to touch my “No” parts as Randy threatened me.



If the Mr. Lahey and Randy show is coming through your town, definitely check it out.
