Comedian Ron "Tater Salad" White first rose to fame as the cigar-smoking, scotch-drinking funnyman from the Blue Collar Comedy Tour phenomenon, but now as a chart-topping Grammy-nominated comedian and a feature film actor, Ron White has established himself as a star in his own right. White has always been a classic storyteller. His stories relay tales from his real life, ranging from growing up in a small town in Texas to sharing stories of his daily life to becoming one of the most successful comedians in America. He has sold over 14 million albums (solo and with the Blue Collar Comedy Tour), been nominated for two Grammys, and has consistently been one of the top grossing stand up comedians on tour in America.
Ron White began performing comedy in 1986 and was quickly opening for legendary comedians Sam Kinison and Jeff Foxworthy. While eventually making the rounds as a comedy club headliner, in 2000, White was asked to join the Blue Collar Comedy Tour alongside Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall and Larry the Cable Guy. The show toured for over three years to sold-out audiences in over 270 cities and grossed more than $35 million. In 2003, Warner Brothers filmed the show, Blue Collar Comedy Tour: The Movie for a theatrical/TV/DVD/CD release. The film premiered as the most-watched movie in Comedy Central's history. In 2005, the video Blue Collar Comedy Tour Rides Again was filmed and released on TV and DVD/CD.
In November of 2003, White released his breakthrough comedy CD Drunk In Public followed by his first one-hour TV comedy special They Call Me Tater Salad. The special had the highest viewership for a Sunday program in Comedy Central history. The DVD version reached #1 on the Billboard Comedy Chart. White's second one-hour special You Can't Fix Stupid aired on Comedy Central to 4.5 million viewers, making it the third largest audience in Comedy Central's history and the #1 show on primetime basic cable. The CD reached #1 on the Billboard Comedy Charts and remained there for 9 consecutive weeks. This success also earned White his first Grammy nomination. Ron received his second Grammy nod for the show Blue Collar Comedy Tour - One for The Road. In June 2006, Penguin Books released Ron's first book Ron "Tater Salad" White: I Had the Right to Remain Silent...But I Didn't Have the Ability, which landed him on the New York Times Best Seller List. In 2009, Ron released his 3rd album Behavioral Problems, which reached #1 on the Billboard Comedy Chart. In 2013 Ron's 4th album, A Little Unprofessional, also reached #1 on the Billboard Comedy Chart. Never one to rest on his laurels, Ron White partnered with Netflix to release his most recent effort- the highly successful comedy special, "If You'd Quit Listening, I'd Shut Up."
As an actor, Ron White has had supporting roles in the major theatrical films Horrible Bosses and Sex and the City 2. He also had a principal role in Jayne Mansfield's Car (written/directed by Billy Bob Thornton). He was a co-Executive Producer of Bridegroom, a Linda Bloodworth-Thomason documentary, which debuted at the 2013 NYC Tribeca Film Festival and won the Audience Award. In 2016, Ron White's acting talents were showcased alongside Luke Wilson, Carla Gugino, and Imogen Poots, in music-industry veteran Cameron Crowe's Showtime series, Roadies. White played road-tested tour manager Phil in a critically praised performance.
Live performances on a comedy stage remain the life-blood of Ron White, and after all these years, the fans still can't get enough. White maintains a rigid touring schedule, and plays to sold out crowds all over the country night after night. The industry also continues to take notice; in 2021, Ron White was nominated as Pollstar's Comedy Touring Artist of the Decade.
We've seen Ron on TV specials and always loved his comedy..but it was amazing to see him live...and of course more adult content than you see on TV..He had all new stuff also..nothing was a repeat. We would definitely go again.
Simply amazing! Been wanting to see Ron live for so long and I finally did! Such a witty guy and very intelligent humour! I had the meet and greet ticket and he was quite the character! Always funny and answered all of our questions! His crew were also very cool. Made our experience awesome! I am not a star struck person but what a treat to meet and shake Ron's hand! Especially when he said he didn't do extra shows in Vegas so he could tour and make more people laugh in our own city! Very classy guy! Even with the cussing...lol Cheers! Thanks Ron!
Ron White is the funniest comedian on the planet. He had me laughing so hard my eyes were watering for the entire show. In fact, my face hurt the entire way home from laughing so much. Definitely gonna see him again the next time he's in Toronto!
The Show was nonstop hilarity. I'm going to see all his shows whenever I can.
Ron White is hilarious. Haven't laughed like that... Ever. Opening act was great as well. First time at Massey... I now know I never want to sit in the gallery seats ever again!
Good ol Ron, still the same, but with stuff that I've never heard before. A couple of memorable quotes!
Ron is funnier than ever! love the yacht story! Between four of us, one of us was always laughing but usually all of us were.
Great show laughter is a great cure-all and Ron is the Doc.
Excellent show! Have seen Ron White several times in different cities. Enjoy the show everytime. This time in Vegas show was really good, so was opening act, we bought the VIP package, wasnt as thrilled as I thought I would be. You literallly stand beside him get a snapshot and walk away. I thougth way more interaction was going to happen, I was a little let down.... but it was a good night out
Ron is the third of the blue collar comedy foursome, he is the best by far. Travelled a long distance to see him and it was well worth it. Will see him again if I get the opportunity.
Although the seating could have been better thought out, Ron White and his opener put on one heck of a show - my face still hurts from laughing. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable evening and would see him again in a second.
The seating was great. The comedy was priceless. It was good to see new material for our consumption. Good to see he still drinks and smokes - lol!
I am so happy that we bought tickets to go to his show again! In no way was it repetative. I laughed so hard I cried!! I would go a 3rd time if he came again.
I have talked to a few people who were at the event and we all agreed it was great! I had a blast and laughed a ton. I would go again in a heartbeat.
Ron White was hilarious. He was a little cruder in person than I thought he would be, but it was very funny and i am very happy that we got to see him.
Funny, original. Only complaint is that our tickets said 8:00pm but the show started at 7:30!!
Ron White is, without a doubt, one of the funniest comedians of this era. He is absolutely hilarious! His delivery and timing are impeccable. The content of his show was, overall, mostly original material with only a few repeat jokes. How can you not love this incredibly, talented man? I know I do! The opening act was also very funny! Well done!
We thought Ron was very funny. Thought the show could have been a bit longer as we enjoyed it very much.
We had the best time ever. Ron White is a consummate performer. What a great time. Come back again soon Ron.
I have watched many different videos and TV shows with Ron as a feature performer or as part of a group but nothing prepared me for his live show. I was surrounded by people who were literally in tears from laughter. He is truly an artist of his craft and I hope I have the pleasure of seeing him again on stage.
