The opening day at ATX TV Fest give the tone in the right way. We laughed, we mingled, we heard some pretty unforgettable stories and we met with two comedy legends that showed us how it was done.
George Wallace has the room in stitches
Things began with the only George Wallace that gave us a fermented look into his decades in the comedy world. He spoke about his longstanding friendship with Jerry Seinfeld, about his connections to Adam Sandler and what makes his trip to the show business differently.
“I did everything,” he said. “I earned the money. I did the cinemas. I just didn’t pay the price that these boys did.”
And then he struck us with the quote of the day.
“You know the difference between me, Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld and Adam Sandler? I can still pee.”
