My opening acts are always really strong because I need a guy who can take on a big, big crowd. Which is not that easy to do.

I really understood a lot more about comedy after listening to Bill Hicks, who died at 32 years old. He’s probably the best comedian who ever lived. Although you can’t say that because of Carlin, Cosby and Pryor.
RON WHITE -
My favorite bands are the Allman Brothers and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

RON WHITE -
My shows are not all-the-way filthy, but they can be.
RON WHITE -
The first thing I ever got my hands on was Andy Griffith’s ‘What It Was, Was Football.’ I was fascinated with the fact that every syllable made it funny, and I would laugh even though I didn’t know what any of it meant.
