Come see the revival of the annual "The Super Bowl of New Jokes" in a high stakes comedy competition with a winner-takes-all audience vote!
The Super Bowl of New Jokes is an annual competition in Houston that gives comedians a chance to compete in a neutral, competitive atmosphere. Comics start with a fresh slate of ideas and are only permitted to use material they developed within the four weeks leading up to the competition. Competitors are judged by a mix of crowd participation votes and 4 judges scoring. This year's competition will consist of 9 hand-chosen competitors in a winner-take-all format. The winner will receive a full cash payout, a trophy, automatic entry into next year's competition, and the rights to call themselves one of the best writers in town!
Past winners of the competition are:
2011: Donnie Johnson
2012: Mark Hurtado - Sirus XM, ABC
2013: Matthew Broussard - Comedy Central, Jimmy Fallon
2014: Mykal Dédé - SXSW
2015: Victor Tran - Laughing Skull Comedy Festival
