Jeff Dunham is awesome. I had the opportunity to go see him when his Spark of Insanity tour stopped in Rockford a few months ago, and I was not disappointed.
The highlight of the night was at the end when Jeff brought out Bubba J; according to him he hadn't planned on performing Bubba that night but he'd gotten so many requests from fans in the Rockford area that he gladly obliged. The Rockford audience then proceeded to throw Jeff and Bubba for a loop by saying Bubba J's lines right along with him, sometimes finishing his sentences which prompted Bubba to tell Jeff that they knew the routine better than he did.
And not only is Jeff a master ventriloquist, but he's also a very giving person. Apparently it's customary for him to donate to a local charity at every one of his tour stops, so in Rockford he donated to the local food pantry. And this wasn't a nationwide charity that had a chapter office in the area: this was an actual local charity.
