See Jerry Wayne Longmire LIVE at The Comedy Vault Batavia on Thursday, March 4th 2027!



Jerry Wayne Longmire is a veteran stand-up comic, original viral content creator, and well-known internet personality. A seasoned performer based out of Houston, Jerry performs for the troops overseas, delivers dynamic sets in intimate comedy club settings and theater venues alike, and produces 100% original, professional-grade social media content. His playful brand of storytelling and signature twang — reminiscent of an East Texas junkyard upbringing — effortlessly draws in audiences and captivates people worldwide. With over 1.5 million followers across his social media platforms, you may recognize Jerry from viral series like the witty, sometimes frighteningly insightful Truck Astrology roast series, or the carefully crafted garage antics of Shoptalk. His videos across TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and Instagram consistently reach nearly 300 million impressions across all platforms. Jerry also works alongside Mattel's premier brand, Hot Wheels, as a recurring judge for their annual custom car competition, the Hot Wheels Legends Tour — where he draws on his unmatched knowledge of vehicles and impeccable taste to work directly with Hot Wheels designers and executives in selecting the custom build that will join the die-cast production lineup the following year. Deep-cut fans love getting a glimpse of the "real Jerry" in his hilariously relatable and refreshingly vulnerable podcast, The Reckon Yard — a self-examination of his life, relationships, and Southern piney woods upbringing, told through the vehicles and junkyard lessons that shaped him. Now in its fourth season, The Reckon Yard has already landed a two-book deal for Season 1 — with full audio, TV, and film sub-rights. At the end of the day, Jerry Wayne Longmire is the rare entertainer who can make a crowd of thousands feel like they're sitting around the fire with an old friend — and that's not something you can manufacture.

Steve Hofstetter is returning to The Comedy Vault Batavia for a 3rd time on Saturday, April 10th!

Author, columnist, and comedian Steve Hofstetter is often called the hardest working man in show-business. With all due respect to the late James Brown.

Hofstetter's national TV debut came on ESPN's Quite Frankly, where Stephen A. Smith yelled at him for three minutes. Hofstetter has also appeared on CBS' "Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson", Showtime's "White Boyz in the Hood", VH1's "Countdown", Sundance's "On the Road in America", and ABC's "Barbara Walter's Special", where he thankfully did not cry. He is the host and executive producer of "Laughs" on Fox networks, where he only cries occasionally.

One of the top booked acts on the college circuit, the original writer for collegehumor.com has also released six albums. Hofstetter has written humor columns for the New York Times, SportsIllustrated.com, and NHL.com, where he publicly admitted to being a Ranger fan.

After hosting Four Quotas on Sirius Satellite Radio for two seasons, Hofstetter moved to broadcast radio, and his Sports Minute (Or So) was syndicated on over 170 stations and in over 30 newspapers. Hofstetter's second live comedy album ("Cure For the Cable Guy") reached #20 on Billboard's comedy charts. His third album ("Dark Side of the Room") was the first ever pay-what-you-want" comedy album, since people were going to steal it anyway. His fouth album consisted of an hour of 100% ad-libbed material, which is, frankly, nuts. And his fifth album hit #1 on iTunes' comedy charts, which is also a bit nuts.

Hofstetter's brutal tour schedule consists of over 100 colleges and dozens of clubs every year, and is fueled by an immense online popularity, tons of press, and a Prius with great gas mileage. He reached 200,000 friends on Facebook (still the world record), 400,000 more on MySpace, and high shelves in grocery stores.

While Hofstetter's live shows are routinely sold out, he is best known for his writing, first published at age 15, mainly to impress girls. At 18, he co-founded "Sports Jerk of the Week", an irreverent website featured by press like USA Today's Baseball Weekly, Sports Illustrated and CNN. And at 20, Hofstetter took a year off of school to head up web content for the New York Yankees. The Yankees won the World Series that year, which would have been wonderful if they hadn't beaten Hofstetter's Mets. Yes, he's also a Mets fan. Poor kid.

While an undergraduate at Columbia University, Hofstetter was a well-read columnist for the Columbia Daily Spectator and a voice of the Lions. After a summer writing for Maxim, ESPN, and Sports Illustrated for Kids, Hofstetter syndicated his column in several newspapers.

Without his glasses, Hofstetter also looks a great deal like Michael Rappaport.
