Comedian Mike Epps to tickle Delaware this summer. Here's when tickets go on sale
Heavy hitter comedian Mike Epps is touring to Bally's Dover this summer with tickets going on sale at 10 a.m. Friday, May 17.
Earlier this year, the actor and comic released his new Netflix comedy special, "Mike Epps: Ready to Sell Out" where he keeps it real as he jokes about bad personal hygiene, waging war against work husbands, and failing at infidelity.
Starring in the sitcom "The Upshaws" — Epps' most notable acting role is arguably the silly character Day-Day from the "Friday" franchise.
In February, the comedian performed in The Liacouras Center in Philadelphia as the "We Them Ones Comedy Tour."
Other performers on the bill included notables such as Lil Duval, "Wild N' Out" stars DC Young Fly and Chico Bean, plus DeRay Davis ("21 Jump Street").
A few days before the show, Epps was buzzing extra loud after getting into an online beef with Shannon Sharpe, host of the "Club Shay Shay" podcast. The internet drama quickly resolved a couple days later with Sharpe tweeting a photo of both men smiling and shaking hands.
