A new and rising comic, Nate Bargatze, is coming to Alabama.
Bargatze performs at The Wharf Amphitheater in Orange Beach on Wednesday, July 16, at 7 p.m.
Nicknamed “the clean comic,” Bargatze does not use profanity or sexually explicit material in his funny stuff. He bans profanity and sexual references, but he does not ban humor.
Bargatze is now on his "Big Dumb Eyes World Tour.” Can you see why it is so named?
Other venues on his world tour before coming to Alabama include Green Bay, Wisconsin; Peoria, Illinois; Fort Wayne, Indiana; Dayton, Ohio; Camdenton, Missouri; Rogers, Arkansas; Fayetteville, North Carolina; Chattanooga, Tennessee; Roanoke, Virginia; Norfolk, Virginia; Hollywood, Florida; Richmond, Virginia; Sioux City, Iowa; Evansville, Indiana.
The 46-year-old attended Donelson Christian Academy in Nashville, his hometown. He has been married since 2006 and has one child, a daughter. He went to Vanderbilt University, so it is no wonder he became a comedian.
He hosted "Saturday Night Live" in October 2023. Cleanest host SNL has had.
Bargatze became familiar to college football fans when he was the celebrity guest picker on ESPN’s "College GameDay" in Tuscaloosa as LSU came calling in November 2023.
Details and tickets are available here.
"Growing up in the South, we have a slower pace. I just naturally talk slower. Even when I think I'm talking fast, no one ever goes, 'Man, you were flying!'" — Nate Bargatze
