"Why certainly I'd like to have that fellow who hits a homerun every time at bat, who strikes out the opposing batter when he's pitching and who throws strikes to every base when he's playing outfield. Any manager would want a guy like that playing for him. The only trouble is to get him to put down his cup of beer and come down out of the stands and do those things."
-Pirates manager Danny Murtaugh on Hecklers It's their mutual love of sports and the previous quote that helped give Hecklers Bar and Grill it's namesake, but it's their love of comedy that helped owner/operators Derek Tusche and Aaron McGeough turn Hecklers into a destination room for stand-up comedians. That's right, not only has Hecklers Comedy Night been a hit with locals who sell out most Friday and Saturday night shows, but it has become a welcome stop for comics on the road.
Whether its the charming staff or the energetic crowds, comedians have nothing but praise for Victorias #1 comedy club. Some make sure they book a show when out west, and some even book special trips as a mini-vacation to show off new material or savour a grilled chicken sandwich.
Oh, we didn't mention food? If it's food you are looking for their 50 Flavour Wing Night on Wednesdays should give you a clue they know what they are doing. Thursday's also pack the house with Steak Night and how could you pass up menu gems like their famous Grilled Chicken Sandwich and a deep fried mars bar?!
Whether it's Monday Night Football, a mid week lunch, or Saturday night comedy, stop by and take in what everyone has been talking about.
