Chris got the crowd laughing immediately after asking, “How was your weekend?” He then stated, “I don’t have a bunch of s*** about what happened, so if you came to hear that, I have a whole show I wrote before this weekend. I’m still kind of processing what happened. So, at some point, I’ll talk about that s***.  And it will be serious and funny.”

During his second show of the night, Chris confirmed that he hadn’t spoken to anyone regarding the incident, telling the crowd, “I haven’t talked to anyone, despite what you heard.”
