About An Evening of Laughter

Get your laughter on! The self-proclaimed “Mayor of Atlanta Comedy,“ Joe Pettis is a native of Camden County and will be performing standup comedy relating to life in our community.

Joe started performing in 2008 in the hopes of one day gaining enough relevance to warrant a Wikipedia page. He has since traveled across the United States sharing his stories of growing up in a single mother household, sobriety and the life before (or at least the parts he can remember), his many run ins with the law, and so many more. 

As the founder of 1UP Comedy, he is well regarded for producing some of Atlanta’s best comedy shows. He is the creator of Resurgens Fest, the only comedy festival in Atlanta to focus exclusively on local talent. His 8-Bit Comedy show at Joystick Gamebar was named one of “5 Cool Things to Discover in Atlanta” by Rolling Stone Magazine. He is also the host of the longest running brewery show in the country, Beer and Comedy Night at the SweetWater Brewery.

His two IMDB credits (which he found after googling himself) stem from his appearances on Daytime Fighting League on Adult Swim and Getting Doug with High on VPN. He is also a regular on Doug Loves Movies and pretty much any podcast that will have him. He can also be seen multiple times in the audience at various WWE televised events because he literally has nothing better to do than hang out at wrestling shows.
