It was an incredible night in Duluth on Thursday (May 8th) when one of the most popular comedians in the game took the stage at AMSOIL Arena.

Nate Bargatze kicked off his new comedy tour right here in the Northland - and since his show was announced in December, we've all been eagerly waiting for the show!

Ahead of the show, it became clear just how big this show was going to be! Event organizers took to social media to encourage those going to the show to park and walk to the show since so many people were attending!

I can attest to the fact that the show was absolutely packed! The crowd was great - but how was the show itself?

Nate Bargatze's AMSOIL Arena Show Makes DECC History

If you were at the show, you were part of history: this show was the most attended ever at the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center! Ahead of the show, I learned that 7,795 tickets were sold to see the comedian.

While this is impressive on its own, it's even more impressive when you consider this is more than legends like Aerosmith and Elton John. Not too shabby!

Review Of Nate Bargatze's Comedy Show At AMSOIL Arena

I won't lie - I went into this show completely in the dark! I don't follow the comedy scene much at all, despite him being a big name. The show started off on a hilarious note, with four comedians getting their own ten-minute set.

Each one was so different but each one was hilarious! I like that there were openers to get the crowd warmed up. I had already laughed a lot by the time Nate came on and I have to say - I absolutely loved the show!

I won't give too much away in case you are planning to see one of his shows at the Xcel Energy Center later this year but it was so funny. I do not remember a time that I laughed that hard!

He talked about DoorDash, AI, marriage counseling and so much more. I did not know if I would enjoy a show like this but it was the most pleasant surprise. He has a new fan in me. If you ever have a chance to see him, I can not recommend it enough.
