After a disastrous stand-up show, comedian Nick Swardson promised to “make it up” to fans. The show ended up failing, with organizers refunding the audience. The show also saw him get booed and escorted off stage. Swardson is famous for his work on several Adam Sandler productions, such as “Just Go With It.”
The comedian, known for his role in the comedy series “Reno 911!,” performed at the Vilar Performing Arts Center in Beaver Creek on Sunday, March 3, 2024. However, the organizers cut his performance short and removed him from the stage. Viral videos of the event showed the crowd booing Swardson as they removed him from the stage.
In one clip of the show posted on X, formerly Twitter, Nick Swardson appeared promising to do an impression of Jason Statham from “The Beekeeper.” However, the clip showed him repeatedly saying, “Here we go,” as restless audience members boo and mock him.
“Do you want me to finish this or no?” he asks after more than a minute of setup. In response, the crowd shouted back, “No!” Swardson’s show wasn’t a hit with the fans, as he rambled on without getting to impressions. “You suck!” someone from the audience shouts in the clip.

“No!” several audience members angrily replied again when the comic asked if they wanted him to finish his Statham bit. Also, the restless crowd shouted to get him off the stage. Another clip showed the lights in the theater turned on. However, the spotlight on Swardson on the stage was off, along with his mic.
Afterward, a man appeared on stage and spoke to Nick Swardson, and he walked off stage with a wave. Then, another man, who identified himself as the director of operations, took the stage and apologized for the show.

“We decided to conclude the show early in the best interests of those who bought tickets,” the man said. “We apologize for what you’ve seen tonight,” the man added. “Please email the box office. They’ll be responding to inquiries and processing credits and refunds. We apologize.”
After the video went viral on social media, fans accused the comedian of being “bombed out of his mind.” Giving credence to the claims, Nick Swardson blamed alcohol and edibles for his flop stand-up show in Colorado that saw him booed and escorted off stage.

On Monday, March 5, 2024, Nick Swardson took to X to address the performance. He blamed his terrible performance on alcohol and edibles while satirically stating that people shouldn’t try it. “Just casually woke up on TMZ,” he wrote, referring to an article covering the show.
“Travel tip: don’t drink and take edibles at high altitudes. Brain diarrhea. I’ll make it up to you, Beaver Creek!” According to reports, the “Grandma’s Boy” actor has scheduled another performance in Aspen, Colorado. While fans look forward to seeing the renowned comedian, many hope he takes his advice this time.
