I think the only people that don't like this special was the people he picked on😂😂
Legend
Now they comparing who to who?
AIN'T THAT BETTER?
Heard funnier comedians. Got too personal with audience about their sex lives.<br>Uncomfortable for them.
its something wrong with this dude man 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I WATCH THIS AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. ONE OF THE BEST STAND UP ROUTINES I'VE EVER SEEN.
Got a couple laughs but mostly lame imo
R.I.P. TO ONE OF THE GREATS
Best single stand up comedy special ever... in my opinion. Dave the goat, but this special is number 1 for me.
Wowwww stilll toooo funny😂😂😂😂💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Why do people think this is funny?
Quite possibly the best special of all time…
I never heard of this extraordinary comedian before I heard this set. This is one of the funniest comedian comedians I have never heard live. 😂😂😂😂
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5YUPG3O0A8&t=1325">22:05</a> 'mr 4.9 grade point average' is liz lemons agent from 30 rock, he'd previously only represented dogs
Fk'n Hilarious!! Absolute comedy legend. Patrice went out with a standing ovation.
Mr.truth
I miss you Patrice.
The funniest special ever.
I wish Patrice was still alive to call out the absurdity of current times
Those are some handsome people in those front rows.
😂😂😂
Truly the goat. <br>Still holds up.
"Why can't.. I harass you?" 😂😂😂😂😂
Whos here August 2026
Sometimes I wonder if that white girl and black girl and even Diana Ross where indeed placed there for that brilliant opening bit. Having that stunning white girl there on one side and the black girl on the other, allowing him to move back and forth across the stage. The two perfectly separated on either side with Diana Ross in the middle. The positioning is really quite perfect for the bit. Almost too perfect to be a coincidence.
You will forever be famous mr Oneal
Never gets old. I always return for more.
I'm from Zimbabwe. Every time I get into it with the wife I just listen to this set and I'm a brand new man😂😂😂
That's a vaginal word 😜😂 love it <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5YUPG3O0A8&t=1158">19:18</a>

He was one of the best now we have the rest.
Patrice Oneal- Elephant in the Room<br>Dave Chappelle- For What It's Worth<br>Are my 2 favorite stand up shows of all time
August 2026
Unpopular opinion. I cant unsee nor unhear @EDP69
Perfection.
He's a comedy legend in 2026 in 3026 it dont matter he's funny as hell
I got a 150 iq and i still fuck up restaurant. God bless spellcheck.
Dam Patrice left before the right Peptides were made accessible.
RIP 🕊 PATRICE O' NEAL
R.I.P. !!! We Miss You!!!
Still to this day, still hits.
Can tell how many times i re-watch all of his stuff man ....Hilarious man....
Back for more 2026
David Chappelle is the Goat. But this is the #1 routine of anybody!!! I watch it probably 10 or more times. Every year.
i can't think of a more masterful use of crowdwork. instead of playing it safe, hitting a captive audience with material he knows will kill, he empowers his audience in an open comedic space—no spotlight, the houselights as bright as the stage—and is both uncompromising in his opinions as he is vulnerable. he asked every woman for their name before acting out harassment scenarios. he began by admitting defeat and his disillusionment about it. he talks about football being ruined by empathy for injured opponents and later says he can't value a person who dislikes animals.<br><br>richard pryor is the greatest stand-up comedian that has ever lived. in this performance patrice was his equal.
The stale cracker jacks lol. Throw them on the floor lol
This dude was racist af…
dental damn 😂😂😂😂😂
man is a philosopher
white slave fkn got me😂😂😂😂
Amazing racial comedy without being racist
He's so naturally funny it's crazy. RIP. Truly a legend!
Kevin hart sacrificed the big dude.💯
Criminally under- viewed
Who’s here in 2027?
“Top Shelf W W!” 😂😂😂😂
@<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5YUPG3O0A8&t=340">5:40</a> I heard this joke and thought of Nolan Wells. Patrice really joke about the realest shit and make it funny. Timeless too
❤ The idea of harassment day😂 I've always wanted to ask real politely. May I touch your nipple 🤔
Patrice was a cuck btw
Thats high level
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5YUPG3O0A8&t=3180">53:00</a>
The real GOAT 🐐 🎉
Hey ,is it just me or ,he seems to improvise everything ,and get nothing "prepared" . Im from France ,i didnt grew up with Patrice stuff ,so i wonder if anyone else think this way ? Or maybe this is common knowledge ?
Love Patrice
My favorite comedian of all time. I'll never get tired of watching this. ❤
Stands the test of time
This is just fucking gold! It's so good it almost brings me to tears every time, both ways. RIP Big Man ❤
You guys know his single mom gf Von, stole all his benefit money raised by his comedian friends right?
Have watched this no less than 50 times in the last 15 years. Never. Gets. Old. Legendary set from one of the greats. Wish he was here still to do his magic in the times we are living in now. Missed.
Sorely Sorely Sorely missed
definitly my favourite stand up!
That level of reality is heavy. But guys know it’s true! 😂🤣
Awesome!!!
fun fact, those 20 some y old ones tasting like hope in the audience, are now the stale cracker jacks
OlurenattiBITES sent me. Had to go watch a real comic work after that terrible Kevin Hart roast 🙃
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5YUPG3O0A8&t=1237">20:37</a> sometimes….sometimes….
Hod dare YouTube to hide this from me for 3 years!
Did they know what they were witnessing?
My second favorite diabetic!<br><br>Also, Patrice had to wait 15 years and nobody can type
Every time I listen to this special, I laugh like its my first time

That intro is so sick. Patrice was a PIMP
Obama said "How ya like me now?"
Here is 2027, in advance bc it’s Patrice.😂
Patrice ended comedy. Nobody...
A real G. RIP.
I think Patrice was jealous of the white man because he has a very beautiful woman
The absolute fucking GOAT
The 20 year white woman in the front was probably offended by what he was saying at the time, but I Bet she isn't now she understands
It's like the older i get and the further i get in life, navigate my relationship and just become more of man, the funnier this is. He really was a prophet. They are stealing his jokes for their stand ups and his analogies and thought processes on their dating shows. He would kill in these modern times
He had too high an opinion of women if he believed that housewives did not engage in risky sex on the side. That may have been the case in his time, but now YT is full of videos of wives cheating on their husbands, which results in them ending up on the street, losing their children, their home, and their husband's financial support.
comparing men and women to bears and salmon dipped in honey aged so well now we compare men and bears
