Win Tickets to See Comedian Jim Jeffries at Club Nokia

Jim Jeffries

Comedian Jim Jeffries has never been one to stay away from controversy; in 2007 he was attacked on-stage by an angry audience member in an incident that has gotten more than 500,000 views on youtube.

More often, though, he's been able to get away with talking about off-limits topics through a mix of charm and offense.

On Friday, September 3, the Australian brings his show to Club Nokia L.A. Live, where he'll be joined by Pittsburgh native Eddie Ifft.

Tickets are on sale now, but we've got five pairs to give away to blogdowntown readers. Want to go? Just leave a comment letting us know why you should win. Make sure to include valid contact information. Entries close Thursday at 3pm.

We need more controversial comedians like Jeffries. Im tired of the safe types who dont have much to offer as their worried about offending the audience.

Oh Please Oh Please!!! I think Mr. Jeffries is great and I haven't had a Friday night off in literally years. I do this week and would love to be able to take my lady somewhere fun. Thanks for the consideration!-Brian

My BF could use a laugh! He's been sick all week :( Please email me @ everamy@gmail.com

I would LOVE to see Jim Jeffries. I've only heard him on the Adam Carolla Podcast and before that on the Adam Carolla Show on the radio, and he was always hilarious. One of the few comedians that could actually keep up with Adam off the cuff.

What about me, I have a family, and two children, and little Timmy won't be able to get his prosthetic leg unless I make him smile just once.

My boyfriend's been unemployed for over two years now. It's really tough for him to be happy about anything these days, but he loves Jim Jeffries and really needs a good laugh. It'd be awesome if I could win these tickets for him. I'm at starvingjd(at)gmail(dot)com.

I would love to go because I am doing research for a book I am writing on the connection of laughter and health. Jim Jeffries appearance at Nokia would provide me with valuable research information.

Besides, I have a first date with a lovely little lady and I would love to impress her.

I would love to see JJ. I still haven't been to Nokia or a headliner comedian show. And who doesn't need a good laugh at the end of the week?
