Ron White to perform at Pearl River Resort
Comedy great appears at Silver Star Hotel & Casino Feb. 24
TUNICA — See comedian Ron White at Pearl River Resort’s Silver Star Hotel & Casino on Saturday, Feb. 24. Comedian Ron “Tater Salad” White is a classic storyteller; relaying tales from his real life ranging from growing up in a small town in Texas, to sharing stories of his daily life, to becoming one of the
most successful comedians in America. He rose to fame as the cigar-smoking, scotch-drinking fun- nyman from the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, but has since established himself as a solo star.
White joined the Blue Collar Comedy Tour in 2003 as a founding member alongside Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall, and Larry the Cable Guy. Their show toured for over three years to sold-out audiences in more than 270 cities and grossed more than $35 million. Also in 2003, he released his breakthrough comedy CD Drunk In Public followed by his first one-hour TV comedy special “They Call Me Tater Salad.” The special had the highest viewership for a Sunday program in Comedy Central history. The DVD version was released in 2004. In 2005, White’s second one-hour special “You Can’t Fix Stupid” aired on Comedy Central to 4.5 million viewers, making it the third largest audience in Comedy Central’s history and the #1 show on primetime basic cable. The CD reached #1 on the BillboardTM Comedy Charts
and remained there for nine consecutive weeks. This success also earned White his first of three Grammy nominations. In 2005, the second Blue Collar show, “Blue Collar Comedy Tour Rides Again,” was filmed and released on TV and DVD/CD. In 2009, his third album Behavioral Problems was released. In 2013, Ron’s fourth album, A Little Unprofessional, reached #1 on the
BillboardTM Comedy Chart. All of Ron’s DVDs are certified Platinum.
