Katie-Ellen Humphries was one of three Vancouver-based comedians performing in 100 Mile House on Oct. 3.

Little squirrel claws doing a prostate exam, being overweight and swimming with your shirt on, “junkie camouflage,” and heckling the guy in the cowboy hat, were just some of the bits that had the 100 Mile Community Hall rocking with laughter on Oct. 3.

The Hun City Hunnies’ Second Annual Comedy Night in 100 Mile House sold out again this year and organizer Jennifer Frizzi calls it “a raging success.”

“We definitely couldn’t have been happier. The comedians were really good and the community really enjoyed themselves.”

The 19 years-plus event featured Vancouver-based comedians Kevin Banner, Katie-Ellen Humphries and headliner Damonde Tschritter.

The trio drew a ton of raunchy laughs throughout the close to three-hour show.

“Kevin was definitely my favourite,” says Frizzi. “I thought he was hilarious.”

Asked about a favourite joke of his, she laughs and responds: “He’s so inappropriate it’s hard to think of something that’s OK to put in the newspaper.”

The Hunnies have brought a number of fun and entertaining events to 100 Mile House, including most recently a CCR tribute concert in May.

The group includes Frizzi, Danielle McLauchlin and Nadaya Tresierra.

“The community really responds well to the comedy nights,” Frizzi notes. “I think it’s something we would definitely want to see happen again and again in 100 Mile.

“We just want it to get better. We definitely want the community’s input on things they did like and things they didn’t like because we want to make it the best it can be.”

Last year’s show saw comedians Dan Quinn, Kyle Bottom and Ivan Decker.

“We definitely want to hear the community’s feedback.”
