Wow.
That’s the only word I need to describe the event. Just….wow.
The show went off perfectly. Everyone enjoyed themselves, the comics were hilarious, the volunteers were great, and we raised right around 2,000 dollars for a very deserving charity.
Here are some pictures from the event: (thanks Ashley!!!)

I was yelling at the crowd to come see us do comedy in South Bend
Thanking everyone for coming
Every single seat was full…amazing.
SO…that was incredibly incredible and I will be putting another one together soon, but this week I’m just going to relax.
Unfortunately I did not get to the juggling or trumpet playing or finishing my books, with the new puppy, and dealing with Larry’s injury, it turned out to be impossible. Unfortunately…
After Larry got injured and I took him to the vet, things were just fine or so I thought. Turns out his injuries were worse than we originally thought, and I had to put him down.
This is my favorite picture of me and Larry.
It was coming up on 3 years that I’ve had him, and he was so damn old that you could barely ever tell that he actually knew who I was or even liked me. But every once in a while at night, while we were sleeping, he’d wake up and scoot closer to me and lay his head down right on my side. That was the best. I wake up now in the morning, and he’s not there, and it breaks my heart a little. I’m really going to miss him.
Here are some of my favorite Larry pictures:
Rest in peace, buddy. I love you.

Sorry to about your dog. Our dog ‘Slicer’ is getting really bad off also and it breaks out heart that we might have to lose him soon…. On a happy note I am so happy and proud of you for the show and all your charity work. You are a great man. I wish I could have seen you while I was home. Next time though.Jeanetta
Ben, I’m so sorry to hear about you losing Larry. He sure was a cute little guy. -Erin
Ben, I am so sorry about Larry…big hugs to you buddy…love you !!!
Oh, Ben, I hoped you were joking when you said you had to put him down. I’m so, so sorry, and I think Larry was the luckiest little dog ever to find you. I hope Millie makes you feel a little bit better, and I’m going to try my hardest to come to your next comedy show! I’m so proud of all of my classmates doing amazing things in La Porte.
Choking back the tears now, as I was on Saturday night when you told us about Larry. You were the best dog owner he could have dreamed for in his geriatric years. Good job, Ben!
Thanks so much guys, I’m going to miss him. That means a lot to me that you took the time to say something 🙂 Makes it a little easier.
I am going to miss the little guy. Once in a while I got a hug and a tail wag and it was an awwwwww moment.
