Thanks everyone.. I wanted to check out Love, but 150 a ticket seems insane to me.. I didn't really see anything else that interested me.. I was hoping a local would be able to give me the inside scoop on one of the smaller shows being great. I guess you get what you pay for

The comedy clubs at the Riviera and Tropicana give you the most entertainment per dollar. Both are better than second city. You probably won't have heard of any of the comedians, but I've never been to a show that didn't have at least one excellent comic. I go every 2 months or so and highly recommend this.

If you're on a super tight budget check out Mac King's afternoon show at Harrah's. It's a family oriented magic show with lots of kids in the audience, but don't let that scare you off. King's talented and the show has a lot of laughs. It's easily in the top half of the shows I've seen and by far the most inexpensive.

Without thinking about it much, here's some of the other shows I've seen and the what I thought of them:

Riviera Comedy Club: A
Tropicana Comedy Stop: A
Lance Burton: B
George Wallace: D
Mystere: A-
Second City: C
Mac King: B
V Variety Show: F (was at Aladdin, thinks still runs at Planet Hollywood)
I've been to a bunch of other [censored] ones that I'm forgetting...
