The Patriot Tour

February 4, 2012

The Patriot Tour is a standup comedy program that showcases retired military and first responder comedians and their talent. The Patriot Tour might be filled with jokes and humor but there is nothing funny about the goals of this event; it honors those who serve with silent valor, and continues towards the mission of raising funds for the needs of first responders and veterans. This unique program of entertainment combines comedy and camaraderie to honor the sacrifices of our nation’s heroes.
