I just returned from the 3rd annual Amman Jordan Stand-Up Comedy Festival. This is also the third year that I have done it and every year it keeps growing bigger better and just as fun. Amman is a great city and I have many friends there. All the comics were great, including the comic who is also an Executive Producer of the Amman Comedy Festival, Dean Obeidallah. http://deanofcomedy.com/
This Year the big headliners were Gabriel Iglesias, Dean Edwards, and Omid Jalili. Omid had the shortest flight from London while the rest of us came from either NY, or LA. Los Angeles being the longest flight of all, nearly 20hours in the air. Plus another 5-10 hours in or around or on the way to the airport.
And just as a warning to all,..don't eat Mansif served on an airplane. Bad idea to eat Mansif anyways unless its homemade or a nice place.
Here is a peice from CNN about the festival
