Jim Gaffigan

CLEMSON — Comedian Jim Gaffigan will make a stop at Clemson University’s Littlejohn Coliseum on his 2008 Comedy Central Live Tour, “The Sexy Tour,” at 8 p.m. Friday, Oct. 3.

A comedian, actor and writer, Gaffigan has appeared numerous times on “The Late Show With David Letterman” and “Late Night With Conan O’Brien.” His “Beyond the Pale” DVD was certified platinum and has catapulted him to one of the top five most popular touring comedians in the country today.
Gaffigan has had roles on many TV shows, including “The Ellen Show,” “That 70s Show,” “Ed,” “Sex and the City,” “Third Watch” and each of the “Law and Order” shows. He currently can be seen in “My Boys,” TBS’ first original scripted comedy series. Gaffigan’s movie career includes films such as “The Love Guru,” “13 Going on 30,” “Three Kings” and “Super Troopers.”
Gaffigan is the creator, co-writer and voice of the animated series “Pale Force,” in which he and Conan O’Brien team up as a superhero crime-fighting duo. The weekly series ran on the Internet with Gaffigan premiering episodes once a month on “Late Night With Conan O’Brien.” The two-season, 40-episode series was nominated for a Broadband Emmy and a Webby Award.
Gaffigan has appeared in numerous commercial campaigns, including Sierra Mist, ESPN, Saturn and Rolling Rock. His commercial presence earned him a Business Week’s 1999 “Salesman of the Year” honor.


“We love hearing laughter in Littlejohn,” said Marty Kern, manager of Littlejohn Coliseum. “We have had many great comedy shows over the past few years, from Dave Chappelle to Ron White to Larry the Cable Guy, and we know fans will have a great time with Jim Gaffigan.”
