My real name is Brian Hoffman and I'm originally from North Dakota. I remember watching the Red Skelton Show when I was a little boy or a "mean wittle kid". Red left the airwaves in 1971 when I was 10. After years of people telling me that I was funny, someone finally got me on stage at an amateur night in Hilarities Comedy Club, Cuyahoga Falls OH. I had fun and so did the audience. From there I went to emceeing the club one week a month for 5 months. Eventually I started featuring there and headlining shows elsewhere around the states of Ohio, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Kentucky and West Virginia. One night after a show at Hilarities one of their regular couples came up to me and said the words that would eventually change me into what I do now. They said, "Do you know who you remind us of,..Red Skelton. You look and seem to act like him, you are very funny." I was speechless and then I denied all of it to which they reassured me they thought it was true. I then started to end my shows with an impression of Red doing a Gertrude and Heathcliff joke. People loved it. I then started to find as many DVDs or video of his shows and comedy routine. I’m very thankful that I was chosen to do this. I believe Red’s humor should live on forever in all of us. I wish you all continued success and may God bless.

I wish I was Too. You are Terrific! I watched a video. Red Skelton was one of my all time favorites growing up. If I get a chance sometime down the road, I will certainly make an effort to come see a show. Thanks for being a friend and for keeping "Red" alive. Don
Thanks for stopping by... I like that... hope this finds you in good spirits... if not find a new brand of spirits. Very clever my friend... and how true.
God bless you as well and have a wonderful and relaxing weekend!
