Boston Comedy Festival Contest Handicapping
Hey, all...
Local comic and Campbell's Soup Kid gone bad Sean Caufield has made his predictions for this year's BCF contest:
Preliminary Contest #1 a.k.a "The Kaelin-Murphy Bud Light Invitational":
I have Santorelli coming out. He's a #1 seed in my book. I also have the over/under of Ben Boime pacing back and forth during the entire show at 300.
#2 a.k.a "D.J. Hazard's on the show so why even bother" bracket. of coruse, D.J. is winning this one, although I have Dan Sally coming in at a drunken 3rd, behind a 22 ounce of Heineken.
#3 a.k.a "The most comics on one show during a Tuesday, ever" bracket. I like Howell and Hunt as sleepers, but I think Teddy Bergeron will do a 'Jack Nickalus winning the Masters at 50' in 1986, and he also shares a name with the host of the semi-final show, so I have him coming out on top in this one.
#4 a.k.a "The One-Liner" bracket. I have Lazarus as the favorite, but I have Tom Clark coming out of this one.
#5 a.k.a the "Kelly is on the show so why even bother unless you don't want to miss how many people Dick Doherty can offend as a headliner after" bracket.
#6 a.k.a the "Tommy Morello Pro-Am". A strong field, but I have Rick Younger coming out on top.
#7 a.k.a the "Isn't it funny that Tim McIntire, the comic with the worst luck in the world, is in the hardest bracket!". I have you coming out on top, but dude - I know and like 6 of the 10 comics on there. Even the open mikers are good! You just can't win, can ya Tim?
#8 a.k.a the "Comics with long names" bracket. Stebbins is an early favorite, but then, in mid-set, a dead hooker comes out of no where killing him, so I like James P Connolly in this one.
So, there you have my Elite Eight: Santorelli, Younger, McIntire, Kelly, D.J, Bergeron, Connolly, and Clark. The winner? Santorelli, avenging what happened last year to him at the BCF. Unless Jordan Knight judges again.
