Hey my friends, someone just called me and mentioned this thread so I came to check it out. I have been on a self-imposed ban for a while, I needed a reality check!
In regards to the video, maybe I can clear it up for some of you, as it took place at my church (that is to say, the church I attend and work at).
It was recorded Friday night at a Comedy Night our church sponsored featuring Jeremy Foster and Clergy Comedy (which Kelly Ventura is a part of along with Darrin Sargent).
This event was held to kick off the opening of our new children's and youth facility.
It was definitely a staged fight, maybe Bro. Ventura didn't want to acknowledge that because it was part of the joke. There was an elaborate setup for it and the audience was in on it. It
was (
and is) funny because of the bad rap Bakersfield generally gets.
The whole night was a blast and I am sorry that some of you didn't get to be there, because you obviously need a laugh to lighten you up!
