ATL Comic Profile: Patton Smith

A Good ol’ boy with a silly side

Comedian Patton Smith is a Good ol’ boy with a silly side. The always animated, Alabama-born comic has fun on stage mixing it up with well-balanced sets of social satire, spontaneous zaniness and intelligent foolery. Smith tip-toes the line of confident and cocky well, remaining likeable even in sarcasm. In 2008, he won the “Funniest Human in Chattanooga” contest, and he has been making audiences all over Atlanta laugh ever since.

Comedian since: February, 2008

ATLien since: October, 2008

A lil’ joke: “Paint stores are so pretentious. You pick up a sample panel and the colors always have these regal names like ‘Abingdon Putty.’ Oh, you mean ‘Grey.’ Next time I walk into a paint store, I’m just going to wing it:

“Let me see… I’ll take, uh, ‘Predator Blood,’ ummmm… ‘Tiger Woodses’ Baby,’ … oh and uh two buckets of ‘Ninja Turtle Scalp,’ thank you.”

Upcoming performances:
Aug. 30 - Star Bar — Atlanta, GA
Aug. 31 - The Seriously Funny Show, Smith’s Olde Bar — Atlanta, GA
Sept. 7 - The Seriously Funny Show, Smith’s Olde Bar — Atlanta, GA
