Penn & Teller - Like 'em? Going to see them tonight

Sign in to disble this ad
I've always been a huge fan of them. Seen 'em live about 5 or 6 times and going to see them again at Foxwood's Casino in CT tonight.

Anyone else enjoy them or their t.v. show "Bull****" ?

My brother and I saw their show at The Rio in Las Vegas a couple of years ago and loved it. It was also pretty cool that they went out in the lobby at intermission and after the show just to BS with the crowd. We got to talk with them for a few minutes but I don't remember Teller actually saying anything (no surprise).

They did the same thing after every show I've seen them but Teller was fully talking to the crowd, chatting, signing autographs, etc. It's just on stage that he's silent.

Their Showtime series Bull**** is great. I've never seen them live, but I've seen their routines on TV. Always classic.

I love these guys! ******** and all their skits and stuff. Penn is actually a pretty good bass player as well.

I briefly met Penn a couple years ago. He's truly one of the most intelligent and genuine people I've ever met, not to mention a giant. I love their work.
