ComedySportz, Houston

ComedySportz matches marry the spontaneity of improv humor with the competitiveness of athletics in two weekly shows that churn out laughs for roughly 100 minutes each. During each, two opposing teams of comics—complete with their own uniforms—square off as a referee presides fueled by audience suggestions like on the TV shows Whose Line Is It Anyway? and World News with Diane Sawyer. And fans don't just help suggest the sketches and games either—their laughter determines the outcome of each match.
